Subject: [PATCH] seccomp: Check flags on seccomp_notif is unset

This patch is a small change in enforcement of the uapi for
SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_RECV ioctl. Specificaly, the datastructure which is
passed (seccomp_notif), has a flags member. Previously that could be
set to a nonsense value, and we would ignore it. This ensures that
no flags are set.
