net: filter: be more defensive on div/mod by X==0



The old interpreter behaviour was that we returned with 0
whenever we found a division by 0 would take place. In the new
interpreter we would currently just skip that instead and
continue execution.

It's true that a value of 0 as return might not be appropriate
in all cases, but current users (socket filters -> drop
packet, seccomp -> SECCOMP_RET_KILL, cls_bpf -> unclassified,
etc) seem fine with that behaviour. Better this than undefined
BPF program behaviour as it's expected that A contains the
result of the division. In future, as more use cases open up,
we could further adapt this return value to our needs, if
necessary.

So reintroduce return of 0 for division by 0 as in the old
interpreter. Also in case of K which is guaranteed to be 32bit
wide, sk_chk_filter() already takes care of preventing division
by 0 invoked through K, so we can generally spare us these tests.
