For now, this series merely achieves a clean build of selftests/mm on a
not-so-old distro: Ubuntu 23.04:

Wasn't the plan to rely on the tools/include headers, and pull in there whatever we need?


1. Add __NR_mseal.


For example, making sure that tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h is updated to contain __NR_mseal?

... to avoid hand-crafted defines we have to maintain for selftests.

But maybe I am remembering something outdated.
