Please take a look at the newer version of this patch.   Do you want to
add any tags?
Oh, I didn't know that you already posted the newer version.

This looks strange. If "lsm=" parameter must include "integrity",
it implies that nobody is allowed to disable "integrity" at boot.
Then, why not unconditionally call integrity_iintcache_init() by
not counting on DEFINE_LSM(integrity) declaration?
Or, I think below one is also possible.
