Also seccomp_jit_free() needs a change otherwise the kernel won't build
with CONFIG_SECCOMP_FILTER_JIT enabled since the work_struct is initialized
with the bpf_jit_free_worker() callback, which is no longer existent.

Do you want me to send you a patch?

Quite frankly, I don't like so much that {seccomp,bpf}_jit_compile() and
{seccomp,bpf}_jit_free() are almost idential functions and now both need
to be maintained with the same changes, but that's off-topic here.

Cheers,

Daniel
