This is caused by __NR_memfd_secure being defined as -1 (0xffffffff)and "Illegal instruction" 
occurs when syscall() is executed. And this problem does not occur on x86_64. 
I cannot decide if this is a bug or not. I can't decide if this is a bug or not, because this behavior has
existed for a long time.

Your point is correct...
I would suggest using tst_syscall() to check for syscall undefined instead
of this modification. How about this modification? 

```
