bpf: Remove artificial limitations on pointer types eligible for spilling
The verifier loses precision when simulating stack spills for the following register types: - PTR_TO_TP_BUFFER - PTR_TO_INSN - CONST_PTR_TO_DYNPTR These types are not allow-listed in the is_spillable_regtype(), because of that check_stack_write_fixed_off() takes the branch that marks the slots STACK_MISC. There are no technical reasons for this limitation. This commit replaces an explicit list of pointer types in is_spillable_regtype() with explicit list of non-pointer types. The function is renamed to is_pointer_regtype() for clarity.
