There are well over 6 Billion systems deployed in the wild that use LSM.
Every Android device. Every Samsung TV, camera and watch. Chromebooks.
Data centers. AWS. HPC. Statistically, a system that does not use LSM is
extremely rare. The only systems that *don't* use LSM are the ones hand
configured by Linux developers for their own use.

I see no ill intent. And io_uring addresses an important issue.
It just needs to work for the majority of Linux systems, not just
the few that don't use LSM.
