x86/speculation: Make "seccomp" the default mode for Speculative Store Bypass
commit f21b53b20c754021935ea43364dbf53778eeba32 upstream Unless explicitly opted out of, anything running under seccomp will have SSB mitigations enabled. Choosing the "prctl" mode will disable this.

This parameter controls whether the Speculative Store
Bypass optimization is used.
- on - Unconditionally disable Speculative Store Bypass
- off - Unconditionally enable Speculative Store Bypass
- auto - Kernel detects whether the CPU model contains an
- implementation of Speculative Store Bypass and
- picks the most appropriate mitigation.
- prctl - Control Speculative Store Bypass per thread
- via prctl. Speculative Store Bypass is enabled
- for a process by default. The state of the control
- is inherited on fork.

Not specifying this option is equivalent to
