I'm afraid so.  We concluded that a crucial piece - arranging for the
necessary access controls on privcmd - was not going to be in place
for 4.7.

Without that, this series does not offer much additional security.  It
is a shame that the code will rot a bit in the meantime as a result of
it missing 4.7.
