[PATCH 2/3] powerpc: Relax secure computing on syscall entry trace

[Bogdan Purcareata <bogdan.purcareata@freescale.com>]

The secure_computing_strict will just force the kernel to panic on
secure_computing failure. Once SECCOMP_FILTER support is enabled in the kernel,
syscalls can be denied without system failure.
