I have fixes for some of that crap done on top of tree-in-dcache series;
give me an hour or two and I'll separate those and rebase to mainline...

Completely untested:
git://git.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs.git #untested.securityfs

on top of v6.15-rc5.  And I'm serious about the "untested" part - it builds
with allmodconfig, but that's all I've checked.  So treat that as an outline
of what could be done, but don't use as-is without serious testing.

PS: I'm really, really serious - do not use without a serious review; this
is a rebase of a branch last touched back in March and it was a part of
long tail, with pretty much zero testing even back then.

Patches are simple enough to have a chance to be somewhere in the vicinity
of being correct, but that's all I can promise.

Fair enough, although unfortunately I don't think anyone has anything
close to a securityfs test suite so I suspect this may languish on the
lists for a bit unless someone has the cycles to pick it up and
properly test it.

I haven't compared the patches you posted on-list with the stuff in
the tree above, but based on the timestamps I'm guessing the on-list
patches are simply the ones from the tree above?

git format-patch output for that branch...
