Subject: [PATCH 0/3] signal: HANDLER_EXIT should clear SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE

Hi,

This fixes the signal refactoring to actually kill unkillable processes
when receiving a fatal SIGSYS from seccomp. Thanks to Robert for the
report and Eric for the fix! I've also tweaked seccomp internal a bit to
fail more safely. This was a partial seccomp bypass, in the sense that
SECCOMP_RET_KILL_* didn't kill the process, but it didn't bypass other
aspects of the filters. (i.e. the syscall was still blocked, etc.)

I'll be sending this to Linus after a bit more testing...

Thanks,

-Kees
