For BPF_PROG_TYPE_LIRC_MODE2, I don't think this change will break userspace.
This is called from ir-keytable(1) which is called from udev. It should have
all the necessary permissions.

In addition, the vast majority IR decoders are non-bpf. bpf ir decoders have
very few users at the moment.

Acked-by: Sean Young <sean@mess.org>
