Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] seccomp: Add wait_killable semantic to seccomp user notifier
This introduces a per-filter flag (SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_WAIT_KILLABLE_RECV)
that makes it so that when notifications are received by the supervisor
the notifying process will transition to wait killable semantics. Although
wait killable isn't a set of semantics formally exposed to userspace,
the concept is searchable. If the notifying process is signaled prior
to the notification being received by the userspace agent, it will
be handled as normal.
One quirk about how this is handled is that the notifying process
only switches to TASK_KILLABLE if it receives a wakeup from either
an addfd or a signal. This is to avoid an unnecessary wakeup of
the notifying task.

respond atomically by using the ``SECCOMP_ADDFD_FLAG_SEND`` flag and the return
value will be the injected file descriptor number.
+The notifying process can be preempted, resulting in the notification being
+aborted. This can be problematic when trying to take actions on behalf of the
+notifying process that are long-running and typically retryable (mounting a

It is worth noting that ``struct seccomp_data`` contains the values of register
arguments to the syscall, but does not contain pointers to memory. The task's
memory is accessible to suitably privileged traces via ``ptrace()`` or
