As far as I can tell, Kees's comment
It breaks the backward-compat for the "security=" line. If a system is
booted with CONFIG_LSM="minors...,apparmor" and "security=selinux",
neither apparmor nor selinux will be initialized. The logic on
"security=..." depends on the other LSMs being present in the list.
was just a confusion, and I think that this version can become
the finalized version.

Subject: [PATCH] LSM: Revive CONFIG_DEFAULT_SECURITY_* for "make oldconfig"
Commit 70b62c25665f636c ("LoadPin: Initialize as ordered LSM") removed
CONFIG_DEFAULT_SECURITY_{SELINUX,SMACK,TOMOYO,APPARMOR,DAC} from
security/Kconfig and changed CONFIG_LSM to provide a fixed ordering as a
default value. That commit expected that existing users (upgrading from
Linux 5.0 and earlier) will edit CONFIG_LSM value in accordance with
their CONFIG_DEFAULT_SECURITY_* choice in their old kernel configs. But
since users might forget to edit CONFIG_LSM value, this patch revives
the choice (only for providing the default value for CONFIG_LSM) in order
to make sure that CONFIG_LSM reflects CONFIG_DEFAULT_SECURITY_* from their
old kernel configs.
