Why not change the public API in seccomp.h to:
#define SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ID_VALID SECCOMP_IOW(2, __u64)

And then in seccomp.c:
#define SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ID_VALID_OLD SECCOMP_IOR(2, __u64)
static long seccomp_notify_ioctl(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd,
unsigned long arg)
{
struct seccomp_filter *filter = file->private_data;
void __user *buf = (void __user *)arg;

switch (cmd) {
case SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_RECV:
return seccomp_notify_recv(filter, buf);
case SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_SEND:
return seccomp_notify_send(filter, buf);
case SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ID_VALID_OLD:
pr_warn_once("Detected usage of legacy (incorrect) version of seccomp notifier notif_id_valid ioctl\n");
case SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ID_VALID:
return seccomp_notify_id_valid(filter, buf);
default:
return -EINVAL;
}
}
----

So, both will work fine, and whenevery anyone recompiles, or picks up new
headers, they will start calling the "right" one without a code change, and
we wont break any userspace.
