Hi Christian,
Thanks for your review on this and on the other patches of this series.
I wrapped these to prevent struct layout randomization from separating
the flags field from seccomp, as they are going to be used together and
I was trying to reduce overhead to seccomp entry due to two cache misses
when reading this structure. Measuring it seccomp_benchmark didn't show
any difference with the unwrapped version, so perhaps it was a bit of
premature optimization?
