Building lttng-modules lttng-filter-interpreter.c on a 4.6-rc kernel
triggers the following gcc warning:

/home/compudj/git/lttng-modules/lttng-filter-interpreter.c: In function ‘lttng_filter_interpret_bytecode’:
/home/compudj/git/lttng-modules/lttng-filter.h:144:14: warning: array subscript is above array bounds [-Warray-bounds]

/home/compudj/git/lttng-modules/lttng-filter.h:144:14: warning: array subscript is above array bounds [-Warray-bounds]

/home/compudj/git/lttng-modules/lttng-filter-interpreter.c:715:4: note: in expansion of macro ‘estack_ax’
    estack_ax(stack, top)->u.s.seq_len = UINT_MAX;

This is because the bound checking is performed in a prior validation
phase (which the compiler does not know about), and we only
WARN_ON_ONCE() if the interpreter sees values that don't fit in array
range.

Use BUG_ON() in the interpreter instead, which ensures we never, ever
reach the out-of-bound condition from a compiler perspective.
