The u64_offset_to_skb_data test is supposed to make a 64-bit fill, but instead makes a 16-bit one. Fix the test according to its intention. The 16-bit fill is covered by u16_offset_to_skb_data.
Cover letter mentioned
Patch 1 (Maxim): Fix for an existing test, it will matter later in the series.
However no subsequent patch touch upon u64_offset_to_skb_data(). Was the followup missing from this series?
Thanks for your vigilance, but it's actually correct, sorry for not making it clear enough. In patch 11 ("bpf: Preserve boundaries and track scalars on narrowing fill") I modify u16_offset_to_skb_data, because it becomes a valid pattern after that change. If I didn't change and fix u64_offset_to_skb_data here, I'd need to modify it in patch 11 as well (that's what I meant when I said "it will matter later in the series", it's indeed subtle and implicit, now that I look at it), because it would also start passing, however, that's not what we want, because:
1. Both tests would essentially test the same thing: a 16-bit fill after a 32-bit spill.
2. The description of u64_offset_to_skb_data clearly says: "Refill as u64". It's a typo in the code, u16->u64 makes sense, because we spill two u32s and fill them as a single u64.
So, this patch essentially prevents wrong changes in a further patch.
