WTF are you getting at?  You think kernel development is about
boot-licking instead of standing by your technical arguments?  What
have you been smoking lately?

I maintain, that moving lsm hooks into callers is insane.  And that's
*the* sanest alternative that anybody has been able to come up with to
passing down vfsmounts into the vfs.

So again, can you offer an alternative?

I *am* genuinely interested, so any ideas from anybody wanting to help
resolve this issue are welcome.

Thanks,
Miklos
