Further testing makes your point. The checking in copy_struct_from_user()
is really annoying. I'm going to fix this.

I'm trying to keep LSM_FLAG_SINGLE from being a complete special case.
Asking for an attribute that the specified LSM doesn't support is a
programming error, so I'm not concerned about a trivial performance
issue.

I'm shifting the control logic a bit. I think it'll look cleaner.

No one has ever accused me of being consistent. I believe in using
return aggressively.

As above, I think I'm making this clearer in v15.

Good thinking.

No. Absolutely not. I dislike passing string/length pairs, especially when
they are both contained in a structure.
