Not abandoned; I'm waiting for you to join the discussion.
But for right now I'm trying to merge LOCKDEP's capacity tuning patch for
https://github.com/google/syzkaller/pull/2535 in the next merge window.

I still believe that ctrl_alt_del() etc. should be initially controlled
via kernel config options (despite Linus's objection at
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAHk-=wgz=7MGxxX-tmMmdCsKyYJkuyxNc-4uLP=e_eEV=OzUaw@mail.gmail.com/ ), for
we will need several trials and errors (and an effort to avoid kernel size bloating
like https://lkml.kernel.org/r/YD57hjaSmsYapHnQ@alley still remains) before we can
determine usable units for allow toggling via kernel command line options.
