seccomp: allow TSYNC and USER_NOTIF together
The restriction introduced in 7a0df7f ("seccomp: Make NEW_LISTENER and TSYNC flags exclusive") is mostly artificial: there is enough information in a seccomp user notification to tell which thread triggered a notification. The reason it was introduced is because TSYNC makes the syscall return a thread-id on failure, and NEW_LISTENER returns an fd, and there's no way to distinguish between these two cases (well, I suppose the caller could check all fds it has, then do the syscall, and if the return value was an fd that already existed, then it must be a thread id, but bleh). Matthew would like to use these two flags together in the Chrome sandbox which wants to use TSYNC for video drivers and NEW_LISTENER to proxy syscalls. So, let's fix this ugliness by adding another flag, TSYNC_ESRCH, which tells the kernel to just return -ESRCH on a TSYNC error. This way, NEW_LISTENER (and any subsequent seccomp() commands that want to return positive values) don't conflict with each other.
