I tried this example as a part of selftest
(If put to tools/testing/selftests/bpf/progs/verifier_map_ptr.c
could be executed using command:
./test_progs -vvv -a 'verifier_map_ptr/ctx_addr_leak @unpriv'):

SEC("socket")
__failure_unpriv
__msg_unpriv("spilling pointer with var-offset is disallowed")
__naked void ctx_addr_leak(void)
{
asm volatile (
"r0 = 0;"
"*(u64 *)(r10 -8) = r0;"
"*(u64 *)(r10 -16) = r0;"
"*(u64 *)(r10 -24) = r0;"
"r6 = r1;"
"r1 = 8;"
"r1 /= 1;"
"r1 &= 8;"
"r2 = r10;"
"r2 += -16;"
"r2 += r1;"
"*(u64 *)(r2 +0) = r6;"
"r1 = %[map_hash_16b] ll;"
"r2 = r10;"
"r2 += -16;"
"r3 = r10;"
"r3 += -8;"
"r4 = 0;"
"call %[bpf_map_update_elem];"
"r0 = *(u64 *)(r10 -8);"
"exit;"
:
: __imm(bpf_map_update_elem),
__imm_addr(map_hash_16b)
: __clobber_all);
}

And see the following error message:

..
r1 &= 8 ; R1_w=Pscalar(smin=smin32=0,smax=umax=smax32=umax32=8,var_off=(0x0; 0x8))
r2 = r10 ; R2_w=fp0 R10=fp0
r2 += -16 ; R2_w=fp-16
r2 += r1
R2 variable stack access prohibited for !root, var_off=(0x0; 0x8) off=-16

Could you please craft a selftest that checks for expected message?
Overall the change makes sense to me.
