bpf: Reject BPF_MAP_TYPE_INSN_ARRAY in check_reg_const_str()
BPF_MAP_TYPE_INSN_ARRAY maps store instruction pointers in their ips array, not string data. The map_direct_value_addr callback for this map type returns the address of the ips array, which is not suitable for use as a constant string argument. When a BPF program passes a pointer to an insn_array map value as ARG_PTR_TO_CONST_STR (e.g., to bpf_snprintf), the verifier's null-termination check in check_reg_const_str() operates on the wrong memory region, and at runtime bpf_bprintf_prepare() can read out of bounds searching for a null terminator. Reject BPF_MAP_TYPE_INSN_ARRAY in check_reg_const_str() since this map type is not designed to hold string data.
