Looks good. And for the record, the BPF return values, while not
checked in seccomp_check_filter(), are part of ABI and the kernel will
behave differently for unexpected values. For example, an older kernel
encountering the future SECCOMP_RET_LOG will treat it as
SECCOMP_RET_KILL since it's missing from the switch statement in
__seccomp_filter().
A question about patch ordering: should the new seccomp action
introspection patch maybe follow this one, so they're together in the
series (they provide the same information)?
