* expected callers are:
* - for core dumps. we don't have a "core" binary, and don't
* set this by default to anything. when we do, we need to
* whitelist it here
* - /linuxrc: we're not doing legacy root setup, so we don't
* need this
* - a few drivers and filesystems (drbd, nfs, nfsd, ocfs2)
* - cgroup notify_on_release handlers, which we do not set
* (but e.g. systemd needs, if anyone ever tries to boot
* that on linuxkit)
* - /sbin/request-key, which we don't provide
* - on x86, machine check
*
* Today we only call mdev and modprobe, but as we add more
* features to linuxkit this whitelist may need changing (or a
* policy, like always allow stuff in /sbin).
