I haven't narrowed this down yet (and it *might* be a false positive),
but it looks like this is filter->notif. The only way that's possible is
if seccomp_notify_release() was never called *and* seccomp_filter_free()
got called... which would imply a reference counting problem. The way
there doesn't jump out at me yet, but I haven't yet decoded the C
reproducer into the actual seccomp arguments, etc.
