This whole series looks great to me. If I can get an Ack from Paul for
the audit bits, I can take it via the seccomp tree. One minor nit on
seccomp_log() above, I'd probably change this to show the "exception"
case as "out of line" of normal code flow. i.e. instead of "if (log)
audit_seccomp", invert it to return early:

...
    if (!log)
        return;

    audit_seccomp(syscall, signr, action);
}

But if there isn't some other need for a v3, I can just make this
change when I commit.

Thanks for fixing this up!
