I did provide constructive feedback.  My feedback to his problem
was to address the real problem of bugs in the kernel.
We've heard from several people who have use cases which require
adding LSM-level access controls and observability to user namespace
creation.  This is the problem we are trying to solve here; if you do
not like the approach proposed in this patchset please suggest another
implementation that allows LSMs visibility into user namespace
creation.
Please stop, ignoring my feedback, not detailing what problem or
problems you are actually trying to be solved, and threatening to merge
code into files that I maintain that has the express purpose of breaking
my users.

You just artificially constrained the problems, so that no other
solution is acceptable.  On that basis alone I am object to this whole
approach to steam roll over me and my code.
