This bug is hit using several path, not only via seccomp. This is
another path, via vfs_read, that triggers the bug:

	[  370.154307] usercopy: kernel memory exposure attempt detected from d000000003d6007c (vm_area_struct) (6 bytes)
	[  370.154373] ------------[ cut here ]------------
	[  370.154402] kernel BUG at mm/usercopy.c:72!                                                                    
	[  370.154425] Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 5 [#4]

	[370.155351] [c0000001d30efcb0] [c0000000006c4c50] tty_read+0xc0/0x180                                          
	[370.155387] [c0000001d30efd00] [c000000000347f64] __vfs_read+0x44/0x1a0
	[370.155424] [c0000001d30efd90] [c0000000003499ac] vfs_read+0xbc/0x1b0
	[370.155460] [c0000001d30efde0] [c00000000034b6f8] SyS_read+0x68/0x110
	[370.155497] [c0000001d30efe30] [c00000000000af84] system_call+0x38/0xe0

Anyway, I see the seccomp() path issue when I log into the system using SSH,
and the issue with tty_read() just during the system boot.

Do you have the hardening options enabled? For example, I do not
reproduce this problem if I do not set CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY=y.
