Those values (__NR_seccomp_*) are used solely in secure_computing()

syscall numbers, asm/seccomp.h may override them.

I don't like these names.  __NR_seccomp_read sounds like the number of a
syscall called seccomp_read.

Also, shouldn't something be including this header?  I'm confused.

Ah! Good catch. These names are correct (see kernel/seccomp.c's
mode1_syscalls and mode1_syscalls_32 arrays), but the location of this
change was unexpected. I was expecting this file to live in
arch/*/include/asm/seccomp.h, not in include/asm-generic/seccomp.h.

However, since it's always the same list, it might make sense to
consolidate them into a single place as a default to make arch porting
easier.

Yeah, that is why I put this file under include/asm-generic.

However, I think that should be a separate patch.

Do you mean that the code for all the existing archs should also be changed
to use this (common) header?
