Thanks. Looking again, I see the main benefit of seccomp_struct over
seccomp being that it help avoids error.  Ignoring task_struct :),
signal_struct and sighand_structs are a good example.  Since the
member name is "signal" and "sighand", I think this bit of redundancy
helps disambiuguate, but perhaps I'm just being overly conservative.

I'll leave it as is unless Greg or someone else feels strongly :)

Fixed - thanks!
