bpf: arm64: Add support for indirect jumps

Browse source

Add support for a new instruction

	BPF_JMP|BPF_X|BPF_JA, SRC=0, DST=Rx, off=0, imm=0

which does an indirect jump to a location stored in Rx.  The register
Rx should have type PTR_TO_INSN. This new type assures that the Rx
register contains a value (or a range of values) loaded from a
correct jump table – map of type instruction array.

ARM64 JIT supports indirect jumps to all registers through the A64_BR()
macro, use it to implement this new instruction.
