bpf: Remove superfluous aux sanitation on subprog rejection

commit 59089a189e3adde4cf85f2ce479738d1ae4c514d upstream.

Follow-up to fe9a5ca7e370 ("bpf: Do not mark insn as seen under speculative
path verification"). The sanitize_insn_aux_data() helper does not serve a
particular purpose in today's code. The original intention for the helper
was that if function-by-function verification fails, a given program would
be cleared from temporary insn_aux_data[], and then its verification would
be re-attempted in the context of the main program a second time.

However, a failure in do_check_subprogs() will skip do_check_main() and
propagate the error to the user instead, thus such situation can never occur.
Given its interaction is not compatible to the Spectre v1 mitigation (due to
comparing aux->seen with env->pass_cnt), just remove sanitize_insn_aux_data()
to avoid future bugs in this area.

/* The verifier is using insn_aux_data[] to store temporary data during
* verification and to store information for passes that run after the
* verification like dead code sanitization. do_check_common() for subprogram N
* may analyze many other subprograms. sanitize_insn_aux_data() clears all
* temporary data after do_check_common() finds that subprogram N cannot be
* verified independently. pass_cnt counts the number of times
* do_check_common() was run and insn->aux->seen tells the pass number
* insn_aux_data was touched. These variables are compared to clear temporary
* data from failed pass. For testing and experiments do_check_common() can be
* run multiple times even when prior attempt to verify is unsuccessful.
*
* Note that special handling is needed on !env->bypass_spec_v1 if this is
* ever called outside of error path with subsequent program rejection.
