In the variables table:

PNBLACKLIST, I'd prefer PNEXCLUDELIST, or PNBLOCKLIST.  (I think exclude better
captures what it does.)

Confused, where it says current name is whitelist, suggested rename is
'excludelist', isn't that the exact opposite?

SSTATE_DUPWHITELIST, this is really a list of things to ignore.  So my
suggestion is SSTATE_DUPIGNORELIST.

CVE_CHECK_PN_WHITELIST, I think there is a typo in the table for the replacement
(missing an L).  But like the above, I think ignore is a better word then skip
here.  So my suggestion would be CVE_CHECK_PN_IGNORELIST.
