Thanks for the review. You're right. This change is needed:

diff --git a/security/integrity/ima/ima_policy.c b/security/integrity/ima/ima_policy.c
index 9842e2e0bc6d..cf3ddb38dfa8 100644

 		case Opt_permit_directio:

Making this change does not conflict with any later patches in the
series.

Mimi, I've rebased and force pushed to my fixup branch with this change,
for your comparison:
