Equivalent checks were recently added in more succinct and, arguably,
safer form in:
- f188765f23a5 ("bpf: derive smin32/smax32 from umin32/umax32 bounds");
- 2e74aef782d3 ("bpf: derive smin/smax from umin/max bounds").
The checks we are removing in this patch set do similar checks to detect
if entire u32/u64 range has signed bit set or not set, but does it with
two separate checks.
Further, we forcefully overwrite either smin or smax (and 32-bit equvalents)
without applying normal min/max intersection logic. It's not clear why
that would be correct in all cases and seems to work by accident. This
logic is also "gated" by previous signed -> unsigned derivation, which
returns early.
All this is quite confusing and seems error-prone, while we already have
at least equivalent checks happening earlier. So remove this duplicate
and error-prone logic to simplify things a bit.
