Good to see these abstractions.  As discussed at LPC, we need to ensure 
that we don't couple the Landlock API too closely with the LSM API, as the 
former is an ABI exposed to userland -- we don't want to lose the ability 
to change LSM internally due to breaking Landlock policies.

Extraneous whitespace?
