The subject should of course be changed, as it is no longer being
enabled by default.

Something like

kcmp: Support selection of SYS_kcmp without CHECKPOINT_RESTORE

Quoting Chris Wilson (2021-02-05 21:06:10)
> Userspace has discovered the functionality offered by SYS_kcmp and has
> started to depend upon it. In particular, Mesa uses SYS_kcmp for
> os_same_file_description() in order to identify when two fd (e.g. device
> or dmabuf) point to the same struct file. Since they depend on it for
> core functionality, lift SYS_kcmp out of the non-default
> CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE into the selectable syscall category.
> 
> Note that some distributions such as Ubuntu are already enabling
> CHECKPOINT_RESTORE in their configs and so, by extension, SYS_kcmp.
