Done.

Done.

Done, good idea. Thanks for the suggestion!

I think this makes sense and the code looks better when the IOCTL-related
functionality is grouped together at the top of fs.c, including ioctl_groups,
the LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_IOCTL_GROUP1,2,3,4 #defines, the expansion helpers and
the required_ioctl_access helper.

Done.

Done, thanks.

(I did not realize that the convention worked this way in the kernel.  This goes
on my bucket list of things to double check.)

Thanks for the review!
