The bigger goal is clear.

There is a code in the verifier already that checks ret values.
lsm restrictions should fit right in.

maybe selftests are buggy?
they fail with patch 3 alone without patch 2 ?
please explain exactly the problem.

because it's unnecessary there.

That's fine. Encoding restrictions in lsm_hook_defs.h
is the cleanest approach.

and this applies where?
what reg are you talking about?
Where is the issue?

The patch 3 should be fine alone. I don't see a need for patch 2 yet.
