  * Split out patches for each individual LOOKUP flag.
  * Reword commit messages to give more background information about the
    series, as well as mention the semantics of each flag in more detail.

Ping -- this patch hasn't been touched for a week. Thanks.

If I've been following correctly, everyone is happy with this series.
(i.e. Linus's comment appear to have been addressed.)

Perhaps the next question is should this go via a pull request by you to
Linus directly during the v5.5 merge window, via akpm, via akpm, via
Christian, or some other path? Besides Linus, it's not been clear who
should "claim" this series. :)

I like this series and the same with the copy_struct_from_user() part of
it I've taken I'm happy to stuff this into a dedicated branch, merge it
into my for-next and send it for v5.5.
Though I'd _much_ rather see Al pick this up or have him give his
blessing first.

Christian
