+Subject: [14/29] asus-wmi: Restrict debugfs interface when the kernel is
+ locked down
+Origin: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs.git/commit?id=2e6d31b3176ee27d216bb92a3b108f6b19d4719a
+
+We have no way of validating what all of the Asus WMI methods do on a given
+machine - and there's a risk that some will allow hardware state to be
+manipulated in such a way that arbitrary code can be executed in the
+kernel, circumventing module loading restrictions. Prevent that if the
+kernel is locked down.
