[Vivid][SRU][PATCH 1/1] seccomp: cap SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO data to MAX_ERRNO

From: Kees Cook <keescook at chromium.org>

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1496073

The value resulting from the SECCOMP_RET_DATA mask could exceed MAX_ERRNO
when setting errno during a SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO filter action.  This makes
sure we have a reliable value being set, so that an invalid errno will not
be ignored by userspace.
