Menglong Dong reports that the documentation for the dst_port field in
struct bpf_sock is inaccurate and confusing. From the BPF program PoV, the
field is a zero-padded 16-bit integer in network byte order. The value
appears to the BPF user as if laid out in memory as so:
offsetof(struct bpf_sock, dst_port) + 0 <port MSB>
+ 8 <port LSB>
+16 0x00
+24 0x00
32-, 16-, and 8-bit wide loads from the field are all allowed, but only if
the offset into the field is 0.
32-bit wide loads from dst_port are especially confusing. The loaded value,
after converting to host byte order with bpf_ntohl(dst_port), contains the
port number in the upper 16-bits.
Remove the confusion by splitting the field into two 16-bit fields. For
backward compatibility, allow 32-bit wide loads from offsetof(struct
bpf_sock, dst_port).
While at it, allow loads 8-bit loads at offset [0] and [1] from dst_port.
