I know this is nitpicky, but I'm going to say it anyway ... the
separate record isn't purely for compatibility reasons, it's for size
reasons.  There is a fear that multiple LSM labels could blow past the
record size limit when combined with other fields, so putting them in
their own dedicated record gives us more room.  If that wasn't the
case we could just tack them on the end of existing records.

However, converting the existing "obj=" field into "obj=?" when
multiple LSM labels are present *is* a compatibility nod as it allows
existing userspace tooling that expects a single "obj=" field to
continue to work.
