One problem with this is that we still incur the runtime overhead of
checking, which I guess is a question of ptrace vs. seccomp
complexity.
Andy had suggested multiplexing seccomp->suspended into seccomp->mode
directly to avoid this, but the above still requires a check. We could
play with TIF_SECCOMP, but that has the same problems as playing with
TIF_NOTSC.
Thoughts?
