Thanks.

Sure.

Probably. I'll revise in line with your comment below.

Always a good idea to follow guidance.

That's a bit sloppy on my part. I'll clean it up.

Yes.

The multiple LSM case isn't handled in this version. I don't want this
patch to depend on multiple LSM support.

Yes. I would like to move this ahead independently of the multi-LSM support.
Putting the multi-LSM magic in is unnecessary and rather pointless until then.

Thank you for the review. Expect v2 before very long.
