Mouse,

Please read for comprehension.  There's no good nor compelling
reason for a kernfs alternative to PF_KEY to exist *at all*.

Thre are quite good reasons not to want to pull in all the cruft that
comes with kernfs, just to get one piece offunctionality they *do*
care about, then (once again), perhaps you should read for
comprehension.

Incorrectly reporting that sentiment as ``"evil kernfs! kernfs bad!"'',
(as you did), borders on dishonesty.  Which doesnt exactly encourage
anyone to try explaining it all over again.
