Patch series "mm: memfd_luo: preserve file seals".
This series adds support for preserving file seals when preserving a memfd
using LUO. Patch 1 exports some memfd seal manipulation functions and
patch 2 adds support for preserving them. Since it makes changes to the
serialized data structure for memfd, it also bumps the version number.
This patch (of 2):
Support for preserving file seals will be added to memfd preservation
using the Live Update Orchestrator (LUO). Export memfd_{add,get}_seals)()
so memfd_luo can use them to manipulate the seals.
