Could you please help us sort this out? Our goal is to help Greg with
testing stable kernels, and currently the seccomp tests fail due to
missing feature (seccomp ptrace hole closure) getting tested via
latest kselftest.

If you feel the feature isn't a stable candidate, then could you
please help make the test degrade gracefully in its absence?

Greatly appreciated!

Thanks and best regards,
Sumit
