Re: [PATCH v11 0/8] Landlock: Add abstract UNIX socket restriction

[Mickaël Salaün]

I have reworked a bit the patches, including the signal scoping ones,
and they are here:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mic/linux.git/log/?h=next

This is based on a manual merge of some VFS changes and LSM changes
required for this patch series:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mic/linux.git/commit/?h=next&id=24dfe95e493086a99acf7df1ef23d9f21f8cdec7

My changes are explained in the "[mic: ...]" part of the commit
messages. Please send two last patch series, with this changes and reply
to it with your comments if any.
