I'll correct myself here.
Looking into 7c2e988f400e ("bpf: fix x64 JIT code generation for jmp to 1st insn")
explains things a bit better.
Jumping back to the 1st insn wasn't allowed until eBPF bounded loops were 
introduced. That's what the 1st instruction was not saved in the original code.

Any suggestion on any Fixes I should apply? The original code was 'correct' and
broke only when bounded loops and their self-tests were introduced.
