seccomp: ignore secure_computing return values
This change is inspired by https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/16/14 which fixes the build warnings for arches that don't support CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_SECCOMP_FILTER. In particular, there is no requirement for the return value of secure_computing() to be checked unless the architecture supports seccomp filter. Instead of silencing the warnings with (void) a new static inline is added to encode the expected behavior in a compiler and human friendly way. v2: - cleans things up with a static inline - removes sfr's signed-off-by since it is a different approach v1: - matches sfr's original change Reported-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Will Drewry <wad@chromium.org> Acked-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: James Morris <james.l.morris@oracle.com>
