I think this needs smp_mb__before_atomic() and secure_computing() needs rmb() after test_bit(TIF_SECCOMP). Otherwise, can't __secure_computing() hit BUG() if it sees the old mode == SECCOMP_MODE_DISABLED ? Or seccomp_run_filters() can see ->filters == NULL and WARN(), smp_load_acquire() only serializes that LOAD with the subsequent memory operations.
