Thanks Ondrej, this looks good.  I'm going to merge this into
selinux/stable-6.6 and assuming all goes well with the automated
testing (I can't imagine it would catch anything) I'll send this up
to Linus later this week.

I'm also tagging this for the stable kernels even though this patch
is only present in v6.6-rc1 because the original patch has a number
of 'Fixes:' tags which means the stable folks will probably end up
pulling it into their trees.
