[PATCH v4 8/8] bpf ppc32: Access only if addr is kernel address

With KUAP enabled, any kernel code which wants to access userspace
needs to be surrounded by disable-enable KUAP. But that is not
happening for BPF_PROBE_MEM load instruction. Though PPC32 does not
support read protection, considering the fact that PTR_TO_BTF_ID
(which uses BPF_PROBE_MEM mode) could either be a valid kernel pointer
or NULL but should never be a pointer to userspace address, execute
BPF_PROBE_MEM load only if addr is kernel address, otherwise set
dst_reg=0 and move on.

This will catch NULL, valid or invalid userspace pointers. Only bad
kernel pointer will be handled by BPF exception table.

Changes in v4:
* Adjusted the emit code to avoid using temporary reg.
