If this patch series is re-done, can we tweak the description here
please? From what I understood of the code in this patch, I'd tweak it as:
"Differentiate between the kernel reading a file specified by userspace
and the kernel loading a block of data provided by userspace. This
patch defines a new LSM hook named security_kernel_load_data()."
From the description, I got a tad confused if the the kernel reading a file was also provided by userspace (I know it may be 2nd-nature to people on this list, I'm still learning this kernel module).
Thanks,
Jay

Changelog v5:
- Share the kernel_load_data_id and kernel_read_file_id values,
simplifying Loadpin's and other LSMs calling one LSM hook from the
other.
Changelog v4:
- Define new LSM hook named security_kernel_load_data.
Changelog v3:
- Rename security_kernel_read_file to security_kernel_read_data().
Changelog v2:
- Define a generic wrapper named security_kernel_read_blob() for
security_kernel_read_file().
Changelog v1:
- Define and call security_kexec_load(), a wrapper for
security_kernel_read_file().
