Should this be SECCOMP_SET_MODE_FILTER_EBPF or just SECCOMP_SET_MODE_EBPF?

Not sure it's worth adding all this bpf(2)-alike interface complexity into
this, but fair enough, I guess there are some very good reasons and bigger
additions coming then ...

I (truly) hope, I'm overseeing something ;) ...

... but why doing all the (classic) seccomp-BPF preparation work (which is rather
a lot) up to this point, where you have it ready, only to *then* find out we don't
have the actual permissions ?!

Plus, when seccomp_install_filter() fails with -EACCES, who is releasing all the
allocated foo resp. dropping taken program refs !?

I see the same in seccomp_ebpf_add_fd().

So, an unprivileged child could increase the parent's bpf_prog's reference count
w/o having the actual permissions to do so, and thus controlling it to the point
where the next bpf_prog_put() would unintentionally release it?

(So yeah, I'm hoping I misread something ... ;))
