Daniel and I work together and both have things written on top of this
kfunc. He reached out to collaborate, I agreed. We're also going to
send bpf_set_file_xattr shortly.

This implementation was chosen due to its immediate mergeability (it
only touches security/bpf), but was actually suggested by Kumar in v1
or so of my original series.

That said, sorry for any confusion about this appearing as a new
series rather than as v7 of my previous one.
