man: Document that RestrictAddressFamilies= doesn't work on s390/s390x/...

Browse Source 
We already say that it doesn't work on i386, but there are more archs
like that apparently.

<listitem><para>Restricts the set of socket address families
accessible to the processes of this unit. Takes a
space-separated list of address family names to whitelist,
such as
<constant>AF_UNIX</constant>,
<constant>AF_INET</constant> or
<constant>AF_INET6</constant>. When
prefixed with <constant>~</constant> the listed address
families will be applied as blacklist, otherwise as whitelist.
Note that this restricts access to the
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>socket</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
system call only. Sockets passed into the process by other
means (for example, by using socket activation with socket
units, see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.socket</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>)
are unaffected. Also, sockets created with
<function>socketpair()</function> (which creates connected
AF_UNIX sockets only) are unaffected. Note that this option
has no effect on 32-bit x86 and is ignored (but works
correctly on x86-64). If running in user mode, or in system
mode, but without the <constant>CAP_SYS_ADMIN</constant>
capability (e.g. setting <varname>User=nobody</varname>),
<varname>NoNewPrivileges=yes</varname> is implied. By
default, no restriction applies, all address families are
accessible to processes. If assigned the empty string, any
previous list changes are undone.</para>
