powerpc/bpf: Emit a single branch instruction for known short branch ranges
PPC_BCC() emits two instructions to accommodate scenarios where we need to branch outside the range of a conditional branch. PPC_BCC_SHORT() emits a single branch instruction and can be used when the branch is known to be within a conditional branch range. Convert some of the uses of PPC_BCC() in the powerpc BPF JIT over to PPC_BCC_SHORT() where we know the branch range. Signed-off-by: Naveen N.

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. 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.
