[Bug 1877633] Re: libseccomp 2.4.3 (and 2.4.2) is not correctly resolving (at least) the getrlimit syscall on arm64

I think having 2 bugs is fine, it's just that doing so for libseccomp (where it's applied to all sru releases) adds both bugs to the pending-srus page:
https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/pending-sru.html

which is used by some of the ~ubuntu-sru team members to find packages
that are 'ready' to promote to -updates, so this one may have caused
confusion as it was still showing this bug as yellow (i.e. not verified
yet).

I think the ~ubuntu-sru team has tooling (probably from ubuntu-archive-
tools project) that automatically updates all listed bugs with
'verification-RELEASE-needed' tags, it might be useful to include
something like that into security tooling to add similar tags based on
the changelog 'LP: #NNNNNN' bug tags.

Anyway, hopefully this can be released to -updates; we have another
libseccomp patch we'd like to upload from bug 1861177.
