The test forks a child process, updates the local storage to set/unset
the securexec bit.
The BPF program in the test attaches to bprm_creds_for_exec which checks
the local storage of the current task to set the secureexec bit on the
binary parameters (bprm).
The child then execs a bash command with the environment variable
TMPDIR set in the envp. The bash command returns a different exit code
based on its observed value of the TMPDIR variable.
Since TMPDIR is one of the variables that is ignored by the dynamic
loader when the secureexec bit is set, one should expect the
child execution to not see this value when the secureexec bit is set.
