bpf: Fix state use-after-free on push_stack() err
Without this, `state->speculative` is used after the cleanup cycles in push_stack() or push_async_cb() freed `env->cur_state` (i.e., `state`). Avoid this by relying on the short-circuit logic to only access `state` if the error is recoverable (and make sure it never is after push_*() failed). push_*() callers must always return an error for which error_recoverable_with_nospec(err) is false if push_*() returns NULL, otherwise we try to recover and access the stale `state`. This is only violated by sanitize_ptr_alu(), thus also fix this case to return -ENOMEM. state->speculative does not make sense if the error path of push_*() ran. In that case, `state->speculative && error_recoverable_with_nospec(err)` as a whole should already never evaluate to true (because all cases where push_stack() fails must return -ENOMEM/-EFAULT). As mentioned, this is only violated by the push_stack() call in sanitize_speculative_path() which returns -EACCES without [1] (through REASON_STACK in sanitize_err() after sanitize_ptr_alu()). To fix this, return -ENOMEM for REASON_STACK (which is also the behavior we will have after [1]). Checked that it fixes the syzbot reproducer as expected.
