It seems that 2/3 also fixes another minor problem.

Suppose that a group leader installs the new filter without
SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_TSYNC, exits, and becomes a zombie. It can't be
released until all its sub-threads exit.

After that, without 2/3, SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_TSYNC from any other thread
can never succeed, seccomp_can_sync_threads() will check a zombie leader
and is_ancestor() will fail.

Right?
