This is in my queue, but I haven't reviewed the changes yet. @Christian, I'm guessing you will merge patches 1/12, 3/13, and 4/12 since those are the VFS changes? Once you have a branch for that, and we have all the necessary ACKs, I'll merge the LSM changes in 2/12, 5/12, 6/12, and 7/12 and then Mickaël can merge the Landlock patches. Are we all okay with that? -- paul-moore.com
