           - seccomp syscall wired up
 
+          For best performance, an arch should use seccomp_phase1 and
+          seccomp_phase2 directly.  It should call seccomp_phase1 for all
+          syscalls if TIF_SECCOMP is set, but seccomp_phase1 does not
+          need to be called from a ptrace-safe context.  It must then
+          call seccomp_phase2 if seccomp_phase1 returns anything other
+          than SECCOMP_PHASE1_OK or SECCOMP_PHASE1_SKIP.
+
+          As an additional optimization, an arch may provide seccomp_data
+          directly to seccomp_phase1; this avoids multiple calls
+          to the syscall_xyz helpers for every syscall.
