Lastly, given the difficulties we've faced from the LSM maintainers, I'm not
inclined to waste more time in explaining again why this cannot go under

I'm still going to send v7 of bpf_init_inode_xattr series, even though
it's a stalemate. Haven't yet decided where it'll live in v7, I'm
inclined to leave it where it was (in fs/) since one side will NAK it
wherever it lives. We can record NAKs and take it from there.

Just wanted to state this for least surprise when v7 does come out,
which will be soon.

Thanks,
