I don't have strong feelings either way.
This isn't typically enabled, and it's under debugfs, so this shouldn't
be accessible by a typical user anyhow.
That said, there are very few of us who need to take a look at this
file. I'm happy to deal with attacking kptr_restrict when required.
Thanks,
Mark.
