Before this patch, variable offset access to the stack was dissalowed for regular instructions, but was allowed for "indirect" accesses (i.e. helpers). This patch removes the restriction, allowing reading and writing to the stack through stack pointers with variable offsets. This makes stack-allocated buffers more usable in programs, and brings stack pointers closer to other types of pointers. The motivation is being able to use stack-allocated buffers for data manipulation. When the stack size limit is sufficient, allocating buffers on the stack is simpler than per-cpu arrays, or other alternatives. In unpriviledged programs, variable-offset reads and writes are disallowed (they were already disallowed for the indirect access case) because the speculative execution checking code doesn't support them. Additionally, when writing through a variable-offset stack pointer, if any pointers are in the accessible range, there's possilibities of later leaking pointers because the write cannot be tracked precisely. Writes with variable offset mark the whole range as initialized, even though we don't know which stack slots are actually written. This is in order to not reject future reads to these slots. Note that this doesn't affect writes done through helpers; like before, helpers need the whole stack range to be initialized to begin with. All the stack slots are in range are considered scalars after the write; variable-offset register spills are not tracked. For reads, all the stack slots in the variable range needs to be initialized (but see above about what writes do), otherwise the read is rejected. All register spilled in stack slots that might be read are marked as having been read, however reads through such pointers don't do register filling; the target register will always be either a scalar or a constant zero.
