This is the simple fix for -stable, but again, can't we simplify this
code? Afaics we can do get_seccomp_filter() at the start and drop siglock
right after that.

Something like the untested patch (on top of this one) below?

And I can't understand the SECCOMP_MODE_DISABLED check... shouldn't we
simply remove it?

Oleg.
