Subject: [PATCH 4.4 072/107] seccomp: Use PR_SPEC_FORCE_DISABLE

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>

commit b849a812f7eb92e96d1c8239b06581b2cfd8b275 upstream

Use PR_SPEC_FORCE_DISABLE in seccomp() because seccomp does not allow to
widen restrictions.
