Hi - I don't think an additional reviewer is going to be sufficient to
get eCryptfs into a good state long term. There are fairly large design
problems that need more attention. I'll send a patch to deprecate and
mark for removal in 2025.

I'll happily add you as a reviewer and appreciate your interest in
helping.
