commit 711aef1bbf upstream.
The current method to compare 64-bit numbers for conditional jump is:
1) Compare the high 32-bit first.
2) If the high 32-bit isn't the same, then goto step 4.
3) Compare the low 32-bit.
4) Check the desired condition.
This method is right for unsigned comparison, but it is buggy for signed
comparison, because it does signed comparison for low 32-bit too.
There is only one sign bit in 64-bit number, that is the MSB in the 64-bit
number, it is wrong to treat low 32-bit as signed number and do the signed
comparison for it.
This patch fixes the bug and adds a testcase in selftests/bpf for such bug.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
