Bug description:
  Linux kernel since 5.7 allows to write eBPF programs which can be
  attached to LSM hooks. More details here:

  https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v5.9/bpf/bpf_lsm.html

  There are already projects trying to leverage that

  systemd with the restrict-fs feature
  
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/main/src/core/bpf/restrict_fs/restrict-fs.bpf.c

  https://github.com/linux-lock/bpflock

  https://github.com/lockc-project/lockc

  However, BPF LSM has to be enabled by adding bpf to CONFIG_LSM.
  That was already done in:

  Arch Linux

  https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-
  packages/blob/4615bb2493649ad6fa133f864f94cb95c824f361/trunk/config#L9963

  Fedora

  openSUSE

  https://github.com/openSUSE/kernel-
  source/commit/c2c25b18721866d6211054f542987036ed6e0a50

  Debian

  https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-
  team/linux/-/blob/master/debian/config/config?ref_type=heads#L7713

  RedHat

  
https://access.redhat.com/labs/rhcb/RHEL-8.9/kernel-4.18.0-513.18.1.el8/source/blob/redhat/configs/generic/CONFIG_LSM

  Could we please enable BPF LSM in Ubuntu kernels as well? Without that
  change, users trying to play with the mentioned projects have to edit
  their /etc/default/grub to add bpf LSM.
