gallium (iris) depends on os_same_file_description() to disambiguate
screens and so avoid importing the same screen fd twice as two distinct
entities (that share all the kernel resources, so actions on screen
affect the other and would cause random faiure). As they depend on it,
so must we. os_same_file_description() uses SYS_kcmp to check the file
tables for the equivalent struct file, but SYS_kcmp is hidden behind
CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE. As this is not default, we must select it for
ourselves to ensure that our userspace is fully supported.
