If you break freezing promise then it won't be accepted upstream. And I'm not
interested in adding more downstream-only patches. There's enough rebase churn
even from stuff that *was* submitted upstream but stalled on review for various
reasons.

If cap_rights_limit is undesired then on FreeBSD 13 one can use
memfd_create(MFD_ALLOW_SEALING). However, older FreeBSD versions would require
adjusting ifdefs to ignore SHM_ANON or limiting SHM_ANON to when freezing is
not used.
