This is certainly good: having a discoverable way to detect filter capabilities. I do wonder if it'd still be easier to just expose the max_log sysctl as a numeric value, since the SECCOMP_RET_* values are all part of uapi, so we can't escape their values...

Will kmemleak complain about this if hdr is saved to a global (or not saved at all)? Also, something should be reported in the failure case...
