I didn't forget. I updated that sentence to reflect the fact that the
two should be treated similarly rather than differently.

Steve suggested I look into a number of iouring ops. I looked at the
description code and agreed that it wasn't necessary to audit madvise.
The rationale for fadvise was detemined to have been conflated with
fallocate and subsequently dropped. Steve also suggested a number of
others and after investigation I decided that their current state was
correct. *getxattr you've advised against, so it was dropped. It
appears fewer modifications were necessary than originally suspected.
