[SRU Focal 1/1] UBUNTU: SAUCE: Revert "proc: Check /proc/$pid/attr/ writes against file opener"

[Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo]

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1934187

This reverts commit df6b75120b56beee7005eda0d5eb160bbb9dcf0b, which is
upstream commit bfb819ea20ce8bbeeba17e1a6418bf8bda91fc28.

This has been shown to cause failures with lxd, as the opener process had
different privileges than the writer, preventing lxd to be able to create
new processes inside a container when setting apparmor confinement.
