[PATCH v5 3/3] arm64: Add seccomp support

secure_computing() should always be called first in syscall_trace_enter().

If secure_computing() returns -1, we should stop further handling. Then
that system call may eventually fail with a specified return value (errno),
be trapped or the process itself be killed depending on loaded rules.
In these cases, syscall_trace_enter() also returns -1, that results in
skiping a normal syscall handling as well as syscall_trace_exit().

+	bool "Enable seccomp to safely compute untrusted bytecode"
+	---help---
+	  This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications
+	  that may need to compute untrusted bytecode during their
+	  execution. By using pipes or other transports made available to
+	  the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
+	  syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
+	  their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
+	  enabled via prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP), it cannot be disabled
+	  and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
+	  defined by each seccomp mode.
