Please be aware that this patch has been known to cause problems in
distributions which picked this patch series already:
ubuntu:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1807686
fedora:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1658675
as well as rhel 8.

I've sent around this potential fix which has been picked by the
distributions (offered via bugzillas), but went apparently unnoticed
at lkml:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/11/21/634
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/11/21/635

"""
With "debugfs: Restrict debugfs when the kernel is locked down"
return code "r" is unconditionally set to -EPERM, which stays like that
until function return if no "open" file operation defined, effectivelly
resulting in "Operation not permitted" for all such files despite kernel
lock down status or CONFIG_LOCK_DOWN_KERNEL being enabled.
"""

I would appreciate if you consider that change, possibly just
squashing into yours.
