Kees,

I am still trying to force myself to read and try to understand what
this series does ;) Just a minor nit so far.

It seems that the only change copy_process() needs is copy_seccomp() under the locks.
Everythinh else (irqflags games) looks obviously unneeded?

Unless this task is exiting (namely, it has already called exit_notify()),
lock_task_sighand(current) must not fail. Looks like you can simly do
spin_lock_irq(->siglock).
