This patch cleans up a few things in the verifier:
* type_is_pkt_pointer():
Future work (skb + xdp dynptrs [0]) will be using the reg type
PTR_TO_PACKET | PTR_MAYBE_NULL. type_is_pkt_pointer() should return
true for any type whose base type is PTR_TO_PACKET, regardless of
flags attached to it.
* reg_type_may_be_refcounted_or_null():
Get the base type at the start of the function to avoid
having to recompute it / improve readability
* check_func_proto(): remove unnecessary 'meta' arg
* check_helper_call():
Use switch casing on the base type of return value instead of
nested ifs on the full type
There are no functional behavior changes.
