That might work but:

$ git grep --name-only 'integrity\.h' security | xargs grep pr_fmt
security/integrity/digsig.c:#define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt
security/integrity/digsig_asymmetric.c:#define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt
security/integrity/evm/evm_main.c:#define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt
security/security.c:#define pr_fmt(fmt) "LSM: " fmt

Here security.c already uses "LSM: "

Does anyone care about the LSM: prefix?
