Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 1/2] bpf: Fix verifier log for async callback return values

The verifier, as part of check_return_code(), verifies that async
callbacks such as from e.g. timers, will return 0. It does this by
correctly checking that R0->var_off is in tnum_const(0), which
effectively checks that it's in a range of 0. If this condition fails,
however, it prints an error message which says that the value should
have been in (0x0; 0x1). This results in possibly confusing output such
as the following in which an async callback returns 1:

At async callback the register R0 has value (0x1; 0x0) should have been
in (0x0; 0x1)

The fix is easy -- we should just pass the tnum_const(0) as the correct
range to verbose_invalid_scalar(), which will then print the following:

At async callback the register R0 has value (0x1; 0x0) should have been
in (0x0; 0x0)

Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 2/2] bpf/selftests: Add testcase for async callback return value failure

A previous commit updated the verifier to print an accurate failure
message for when someone specifies a nonzero return value from an async
callback. This adds a testcase for validating that the verifier emits
the correct message in such a case.
