Title:
  libseccomp should support GA and HWE kernels

Status in libseccomp package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in libseccomp source package in Xenial:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Currently libseccomp version in Ubuntu are:

   libseccomp | 2.2.3-3ubuntu3               | xenial                     | 
source
   libseccomp | 2.3.1-2ubuntu2               | yakkety                    | 
source
   libseccomp | 2.3.1-2.1ubuntu1             | zesty                      | 
source

  The difference between 2.2.3 and 2.3.1 is 63 upstream commits.

  Of those commits, 7 are already cherrypicked into xenial for s390x
  support.

  However that s390x support is incomplete as multiplexed syscalls are
  not supported.

  A request has been filed to support multiplexed syscalls in libseccomp
  in xenial at
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libseccomp/+bug/1679691

  That is a request for further 18 commits to backport, bringing the
  total to 25.

  Looking at the remaining 38 commits there are:
  - documentation updates
  - tools updates
  - tests updates
  - bugfixes
  - updates to syscall tables for linux 4.3, 4.5-rc4+

  IMHO, in the future when libseccomp is updated to support 4.10 kernel
  syscalls, it should be backported back to xenial too, to properly
  suppor the HWE kernels.
