To be clear, this means I would still need to see the proposed kfunc
in security/bpf_lsm_kfuncs.c to be deemed acceptable.  Also to be
clear, I'm not suggesting, or even requiring, that you move any of the
other existing kfuncs in your patchset; I never suggested that as a
requirement for your work.
