This patchset is rebased against linux-next, on top of the seccomp JIT
interface from Nicolas Schichan:

  00afda30 "bpf: add comments explaining the schedule_work() operation"
  c2cf3192 "ARM: net: bpf_jit: add support for jitted seccomp filters."
  8ef6cd9d "ARM: net: bpf_jit: make code generation less dependent on
            struct sk_filter."
  747416f4 "seccomp: add generic code for jitted seccomp filters."

Patch 1/2 implements JIT by calling seccomp_bpf_load().  It introduces
SEEN_SKBREF, as suggested by Eric Dumazet, to make ensure that seccomp
filters don't use skb (%rdi).

Patch 2/2 eliminates the call to seccomp_bpf_load() and instead emits
instructions directly.  It doesn't have to emit prologue/epilogue either.

Both patches have been tested using vsftpd, openssh, and the seccomp
filter examples.

My main worry about 2/2 is that it's way harder to maintain compared
to 1/2.  I'm posting it here for completeness, but I'd suggest to consider
patch 1/2 only for now.

  x86: bpf_jit_comp: support BPF_S_ANC_SECCOMP_LD_W
  x86: bpf_jit_comp: optimize BPF_S_ANC_SECCOMP_LD_W
