[linux] Opt out of row based match finder for the kernel

The row based match finder is slower without SIMD. We used to detect the
presence of SIMD to set the lower bound to 17, but that breaks
determinism. Instead, specifically opt into it for the kernel, because
it is one of the rare cases that doesn't have SIMD support.
