bpf, ppc64: do not reload skb pointers in non-skb context
The assumption of unconditionally reloading skb pointers on BPF helper calls where bpf_helper_changes_pkt_data() holds true is wrong. There can be different contexts where the helper would enforce a reload such as in case of XDP. Here, we do have a struct xdp_buff instead of struct sk_buff as context, thus this will access garbage. JITs only ever need to deal with cached skb pointer reload when ld_abs/ind was seen, therefore guard the reload behind SEEN_SKB.
