TLI, that AF_UNIX can be a kernel module...
I'm really not excited in exposing pidfd_prepare() to non-core kernel
code. Would it be possible to please simply refuse SO_PEERPIDFD and
SCM_PIDFD if AF_UNIX is compiled as a module? I feel that this must be
super rare because it risks breaking even simplistic userspace.
