Pull seccomp fixes from Kees Cook:
 "Syzbot found a use-after-free bug in seccomp due to flags that should
  not be allowed to be used together.

  Tycho fixed this, I updated the self-tests, and the syzkaller PoC has
  been running for several days without triggering KASan (before this
  fix, it would reproduce). These patches have also been in -next for
  almost a week, just to be sure.

   - Add logic for making some seccomp flags exclusive (Tycho)

   - Update selftests for exclusivity testing (Kees)"

* tag 'seccomp-v5.1-rc8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux:
  seccomp: Make NEW_LISTENER and TSYNC flags exclusive
  selftests/seccomp: Prepare for exclusive seccomp flags

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
