[GIT PULL] seccomp updates for v5.16-rc1

[Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>]

Hi Linus,

Please pull these seccomp updates for v5.16-rc1. These are x86-specific,
but I carried these since they're also seccomp-specific. This flips
the prior conservative defaults for spec_store_bypass_disable and
spectre_v2_user from "seccomp" to "prctl", as enough time has passed
to allow system owners to have updated the defensive stances of their
various workloads, and it's long overdue to unpessimize seccomp threads.
Extensive rationale and details are in Andrea's main patch[1].

Thanks!

-Kees
