Subject: [PATCH 0/4] seccomp: Make seccomp filter reusable

This patchset introduces two new operations which essentially
splits the SECCOMP_SET_MODE_FILTER process into two steps:
SECCOMP_LOAD_FILTER and SECCOMP_ATTACH_FILTER.

The SECCOMP_LOAD_FILTER loads the filter and returns a fd
which can be pinned to bpffs. This extends the lifetime of the
filter and thus can be reused by different processes.
With this new operation, we can eliminate a hot path of JITing
BPF program (the filter) where we apply the same seccomp filter
to thousands of micro VMs on a bare metal instance.

The SECCOMP_ATTACH_FILTER is used to attach a loaded filter.
The filter is represented by a fd which is either returned
from SECCOMP_LOAD_FILTER or obtained from bpffs using bpf syscall.

Changes from RFC ([0]):
  - Addressed comments from Kees
  - Reuse filter copy/create code (patch 1)
  - Add a selftest (patch 4)
