selftests/bpf: Convert exceptions_assert.c to bpf_cmp
Convert exceptions_assert.c to bpf_cmp_unlikely() macro.
Since
bpf_assert(bpf_cmp_unlikely(var, ==, 100));
other code;
will generate assembly code:
if r1 == 100 goto L2;
r0 = 0
call bpf_throw
L1:
other code;
...
L2: goto L1;
LLVM generates redundant basic block with extra goto. LLVM will be fixed eventually.
Right now it's less efficient than __bpf_assert(var, ==, 100) macro that produces:
if r1 == 100 goto L1;
r0 = 0
call bpf_throw
L1:
other code;
But extra goto doesn't hurt the verification process.
