[PATCH] selftests/seccomp: build on aarch64, document ABI

The syscall ABI is inconsistent on aarch64 compat, so at least we should
document it in the seccomp_bpf tests.

Can someone with access to native aarch64 double-check this for me? I
think we need to change these tests to pass if it's expected, but the
compat behavior seems bad. It means compat code will break under an
aarch64 kernel, when dealing with syscalls, like through seccomp.
