I'm sure Linus will be able to handle it, and fix it up, but I just wanted to give a heads up that depending on which pull request hits mainline first, the syscall number for either the new seccomp(2) or getrandom(2) may end up changing. I've been warning people not to try to use getrandom(2) or check anything into LibreSSL, et. al., until the patch is finalized and in Linus's tree, but if you have userspace users already using the syscall assignments in this patch series, please let me know and I can try to make adjustments on my side.
