This is not enough. We need more information on why this happens
so we can judge whether the patch indeed fixed the issue.

I think your fix is good. I would like to move after
the following code though:

         if (!src_known &&
             opcode != BPF_ADD && opcode != BPF_SUB && opcode != BPF_AND) {
                 __mark_reg_unknown(env, dst_reg);
                 return 0;
         }

I think this is what happens. For the above case, we simply
marks the dst reg as unknown and didn't fail verification.
So later on at runtime, the shift optimization will have wrong
shift value (> 31/64). Please correct me if this is not right
analysis. As I mentioned in the early please write detailed
analysis in commit log.

Please also add a test at tools/testing/selftests/bpf/verifier/.
