I added cc:stable. Or doesn't the benefit/risk ratio justify that?

Or doesn't the benefit/risk ratio justify that? I hadn't because commit 110860541f44 ("mm/secretmem: use refcount_t instead of atomic_t") wasn't, and this would build on top of it. I think the exposure is very small in both places, so probably best to avoid the churn, but I'm not _opposed_ to it.

Hmm, the commit 110860541f44 ("mm/secretmem: use refcount_t instead of atomic_t") causes the splats below.
