The attackers know the key to begin with, before the user even gets their hands on the device. The compromised device pretends to generate a random key but instead generate one of twenty keys provided by the attackers.

Shouldn't bus_register_notifier() take a notifier_fn_t (and int priority) directly and create its own struct notifier_block? Why does it expose its linked-list node through its interface? I guess maybe that would make un-registration

What's frustrating to me about your comment is that you and the person you're replying to seem to basically agree on the pertinent points, but you've chosen to make an irrelevant, unfalsifiable semantic argument.

It would be a flat-rate wealth tax only on dollar-denominated assets, which would exclude among other things stocks, art, yachts, country estates... all of which rich people like to own.
