seccomp: Use FIFO semantics to order notifications
Previously, the seccomp notifier used LIFO semantics, where each notification would be added on top of the stack, and notifications were popped off the top of the stack. This could result one process that generates a large number of notifications preventing other notifications from being handled. This patch moves from LIFO (stack) semantics to FIFO (queue semantics).
