Oop! Sorry, I didn't realize this was blocked on me. Once I saw how
orthogonal io_uring was to "regular" process trees, I figured this
series didn't need seccomp input. (I mean, I am still concerned about
attack surface reduction, but that seems like a hard problem given
io_uring's design -- it is, however, totally covered by the LSMs, so I'm
satisfied from that perspective.)

I'll go review... thanks for the poke. :)
