This patchset addresses a race condition we've dealt with recently with
seccomp. Specifically programs interrupting syscalls while they're in
progress. This was exacerbated by Golang's[1] recent adoption of
"Non-cooperative goroutine preemption", in which they try to interrupt any
syscall that's been running for more than 10ms. During certain syscalls,
it's non-trivial to write them in a reetrant manner in userspace (mount).

It allows a per-filter flag to be set that makes it so that the notifying
process will switch to "TASK_KILLABLE" as opposed to returning to userspace
on non-fatal signals.

Changes since v2[3]:
 * Split out addfd patches
 * Move the flag to be per-filter (as opposed to per notification)

Changes since v1[2]:
 * Fix some documentation
 * Add Rata's patches to allow for direct return from addfd
