>Environment:
NetBSD 9.99.77
>Description:
Through observation, I have notices several selnotify() call sites that do not correctly adhere to the NOTE_SUBMIT locking protocol. It is critical for non-KERNEL_LOCK users of selnotify() to correctly adhere to the NOTE_SUBMIT locking contract, otherwise corruption of selinfo::sel_klist can occur.
This PR tracks that an audit of these call sites is needed.
