[PATCH] bpf: Fix backport of "bpf: restrict unknown scalars of mixed signed bounds for unprivileged"

The 4.14 backport of 9d7eceede ("bpf: restrict unknown scalars of mixed
signed bounds for unprivileged") adds the PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE check to the
wrong location in adjust_ptr_min_max_vals(), most likely because 4.14
doesn't include the commit that updates the if-statement to a
switch-statement (aad2eeaf4 "bpf: Simplify ptr_min_max_vals adjustment").

Move the check to the proper location in adjust_ptr_min_max_vals().

Fixes: 17efa65350c5a ("bpf: restrict unknown scalars of mixed signed bounds for unprivileged")

Just to be clear, the patch is for 4.14 stable branch.
