Merged, with the RHBZ link tag, into lsm/stable-6.8.  I've also added a
stable tag/Cc should this should get picked up by the stable folks to
fix the breakage in the recent stable kernel releases.

Assuming no problems are uncovered over the weekend and early next week,
I'll send this to Linus next week.

Thanks everyone!
