Thank you verfy much! But I have to admit a problem. This patchset does
not suport attaching bpf trampoline to regular kernel functions with
ftrace. So lsm still does not work since the LSM HOOKS themselves are
regular kernel functions. Sorry about that and hopefully we'll find an
acceptable solution soon.
