Bug description:
  [Impact]
  kselftests seccomp_bpf will start failing on s390x, though due to a test 
problem, not a kernel regression, thus wasting people's time doing test review.

  [Regression potential]
  Though this is only changing the test, we might be missing or miss failures 
in the future because some tests are not executed anymore.
  ptrace_syscall_faked, ptrace_syscall_errno and syscall_errno should all work 
just fine on s390x, but will be skipped as well with this change.

  [Fix]
  The fix is to consider that s390x cannot change syscall and errno at once by 
using ptrace. It can, however, change the errno at syscall exit time, which 
could even be used with seccomp SECCOMP_RET_TRACE as long as ptrace is used to 
track the exit transitions. But the test is not designed to deal with such 
situations.

  [Test case]
  seccomp_bpf was run, ptrace_faked passed and no new subtests have failed.

  
  -------------------------------

  
  This is a scripted bug report about ADT failures while running linux tests 
for linux/4.15.0-144.148 on bionic. Whether this is caused by the dep8 tests of 
the tested source or the kernel has yet to be determined.
