In kubevirt we want to run virtiofsd in containers. We would already not
have xattr support for e.g. overlayfs in the VM after this patch series (an
acceptable con at least for us right now).
If we can get rid of the unshare (and potentially of needing root) that
would be great. We always assume that everything which we run in containers
should work for cri-o and docker.

"Just" pointing docker to a different seccomp.json file is something which
k8s users/admin in many cases can't do.
