This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Introduce the LANDLOCK_RESTRICT_SELF_TSYNC flag. With this flag, a
given Landlock ruleset is applied to all threads of the calling
process, instead of only the current one.
Without this flag, multithreaded userspace programs currently resort
to using the nptl(7)/libpsx hack for multithreaded policy enforcement,
which is also used by libcap and for setuid(2). Using this
userspace-based scheme, the threads of a process enforce the same
Landlock policy, but the resulting Landlock domains are still
separate. The domains being separate causes multiple problems:
* When using Landlock's "scoped" access rights, the domain identity is
used to determine whether an operation is permitted. As a result,
when using LANLDOCK_SCOPE_SIGNAL, signaling between sibling threads
stops working. This is a problem for programming languages and
frameworks which are inherently multithreaded (e.g. Go).
* In audit logging, the domains of separate threads in a process will
get logged with different domain IDs, even when they are based on
the same ruleset FD, which might confuse users.
