A note for the seccomp maintainers...

I don't know what do you think, but I agree in advance that the very fact this
patch adds "#ifdef CONFIG_X86_64" into __secure_computing() doesn't look nice.
Indeed. in_ia32_syscall() depends arch/x86 too.
We can add an inline function like;

``` uprobes.h
static inline bool is_uprobe_syscall(int syscall)
{
We can, and this is what I tried to suggest from the very beginning.
But I agree with Eyal who decided to send the most trivial fix for
-stable, we can add the helper later.

I don't think it should live in uprobes.h and I'd prefer something
like arch_seccomp_ignored(int) but I won't insist.
	// arch_is_uprobe_syscall check can be replaced by Kconfig,
	// something like CONFIG_ARCH_URETPROBE_SYSCALL.
Or sysctl or both. This is another issue.
``` arch/x86/include/asm/uprobes.h
#define arch_is_uprobe_syscall(syscall) \
	(IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_X86_64) && syscall == __NR_uretprobe && !in_ia32_syscall())

This won't compile if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_X86_64) == false, __NR_uretprobe
will be undefined.

The problem is that we need a simple patch for -stable which fixes the real
problem. We can cleanup this logic later, I think.
Hmm, at least we should make it is_uprobe_syscall() in uprobes.h so that
do not pollute the seccomp subsystem with #ifdef.
See above. But I won't insist.

Oleg.
