[Regression] failed to compile seccomp test from ubuntu_kernel_selftests

This bug is missing log files that will aid in diagnosing the problem. While running an Ubuntu kernel (not a mainline or third-party kernel) please enter the following command in a terminal window:

apport-collect 1840932

and then change the status of the bug to 'Confirmed'.

If, due to the nature of the issue you have encountered, you are unable to run this command, please add a comment stating that fact and change the bug status to 'Confirmed'.

This change has been made by an automated script, maintained by the Ubuntu Kernel Team.

Possible fix:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/6c3b6d50839151c5d8a077610b5d8c3dc1e7e7b3

Commit in comment #3 is not the right one, we have already got that.

The commit in comment #3 is actually not applied to the bionic tree.

Commit upstream 3aa415dd2128 (selftests: skip seccomp get_metadata test if not real root) depends on d057dc4e35e1 (seccomp: add a selftest for get_metadata), but the latter has been reverted on bionic as part of bug #1837664.

So the best solution is to revert c33a23ff8ffc, which is not needed.

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-done-bionic'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-failed-bionic'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!
