Similar to Stefan's comments.  The backports and cherry picks look good
to me.  Given that these are from upstream, have been tested and are
from trusted developers I'm OK with these changes even though they are a
large changeset and I'm not 100% sure if these changes are fully correct
because I don't have the seccomp domain knowledge.
