It might not be available upstream but it is in all downstream Android
kernels. Furthermore, all of the previous CFI fixes I have done have
inevitably ended up in stable trees through AUTOSEL, I figured I would
save Sasha the hassle this time around. It does not personally matter to
me though, I am fine with stripping the tag since I do all of my
personal testing with mainline/next so if this is needed in stable
later due to an OEM or someone else tripping over it, it can just be
added then.

Let me know if you want me to resend it without that tag.

Cheers,
Nathan
