I don't think that merging this patch makes sense since we don't really support
combination of old kernel and new systemd. Both components are so centric these
days that they should be updated in lockstep. Hence allowing people to compile
against very old kernels shouldn't be possible really.
AFAIK filter using unsupported BPF instruction will be rejected by kernel's
static analyzer for BPF code.
