Subject: [PATCH 0/4] Atomic addfd send and reply

This is somewhat of a respin of "Handle seccomp notification preemption"
but without the controversial parts.

This patchset addresses a race condition we've dealt with recently with
seccomp. Specifically programs interrupting syscalls while they're in
progress. This was exacerbated by Golang's recent adoption of "async
preemption", in which they try to interrupt any syscall that's been
running for more than 10ms during GC. During certain syscalls, it's
non-trivial to write them in a reetrant manner in userspace (socket).
