I guess I'm just a little bit frustrated, because, in my mind, some of
my patches provide immediate value, and are ready to be reviewed, and
or respun.
I'm not seeing much value in this functionality, given that SELinux is the
only unloadable LSM, and that is really just an historical workaround
which may be normalized at some point.

Patch 1 may be useful on its own.
Do you not think patch 2 is also useful? Is it worth me re-rolling 1-2
independently?

Do you think not think that minor loadable LSMs are valuable? -- And
if so, do you think it's okay with, or without guardrails?
