Hi Kevin,

This is causing a build failure:

It seems you haven't carefully checked call sites here, please do very
carefully recheck these - I see Yeoreum reported a mising kasan case, so I
suggest you just aggressively grep this + make sure you've covered all
bases :)
I did check all call sites pretty carefully and of course build-tested,
but my series is based on v6.17-rc4 - just like the calls Yeoreum
mentioned, the issue is that those calls are in mm-stable but not in
mainline :/ I suppose I should post a v2 rebased on mm-stable ASAP then?
