[PATCH v9 07/11] sched: move no_new_privs into new atomic flags

From: Kees Cook
Date: Fri Jun 27 2014 - 19:24:57 EST


Since seccomp transitions between threads requires updates to the
no_new_privs flag to be atomic, the flag must be part of an atomic flag
set. This moves the nnp flag into a separate task field, and introduces
accessors.
