Do we really need this? If we don't define memfd_secret, we really want
to get a TCONF. And the function is used in a weird way.
If you need to add the support for memfd_secret, please just update the
syscalls files via:
./include/lapi/syscalls/generate_arch.sh <path to linux sources>
We don't update .in files manually since it's error prone.
