Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Running seccomp kernel selftests will fail.

  [Test case]
  Run linux/tools/testing/selftests/seccomp/seccomp_bpf.

  On failure:

  seccomp_bpf.c:3149:global.user_notification_basic:Expected -1 
(18446744073709551615) == ret (0)
  seccomp_bpf.c:3150:global.user_notification_basic:Expected EINVAL (22) == 
errno (0)
  global.user_notification_basic: Test failed at step #3
  [     FAIL ] global.user_notification_basic

  On success:

  [ RUN      ] global.user_notification_basic
  [       OK ] global.user_notification_basic

  
  [Regression potential]
  The test is checking that the given structure which the kernel will write to 
is all zeroes. It's doing it because it wants userspace to have the possibility 
in the future to give data there indicating support for an extension that might 
be developed in the future. As the test is there right now, not applying the 
breaking uABI fix might cause us to miss applications that would break in 
future kernels. As the backport for that is prone for more regression 
potential, we are deciding to revert the new test.

  ======================================

  Issue found on Oracle Bionic 5.0 (oracle : 5.0.0-1011.16 : amd64)

  [ RUN      ] global.user_notification_basic
  seccomp_bpf.c:3149:global.user_notification_basic:Expected -1 
(18446744073709551615) == ret (0)
  seccomp_bpf.c:3150:global.user_notification_basic:Expected EINVAL (22) == 
errno (0)
  global.user_notification_basic: Test failed at step #3
  [     FAIL ] global.user_notification_basic

  This cannot be reproduced with the kselftest in older kernel, probably
  a test case issue.
