I'm not applying this.. i) this means by default you effectively remove these
helpers from existing users in the wild given integrity mode is default for
secure boot, but also ii) should we lock-down and remove the ability for other
privileged entities like processes to send signals, seccomp to ret_kill, ptrace,
etc given they all "can affect userspace processes". For the other one, check
out already existing FUNCTION_ERROR_INJECTION kernel config.
