Based on Linus' criteria, this appears to be a case for reverting the
static LSM patch.

Jan, I remember you posting this last year and IIRC, there were really
only coding style issues to be addressed. There were some review queries
and suggestions (e.g. decomposing CAP_SYS_ADMIN), but no deal-breakers --
certainly not now that security architecture and security model objections
are out of bounds.

So, I would suggest reposting the code for upstream inclusion, which
would be better at least in terms of upstream maintenance, as your code
will be visible in the tree.
