Sasha has already queued the original commit and the dependencies for
the 6.1, 6.0, and 5.15 stable kernels.  Those kernels all had the
call_lsm_notifier() to call_blocking_lsm_notifier() change.  Prior to
5.3, the change to the blocking notifier would need to be backported as
well.  This version of the backport still needs to be reviewed.
