As far as I can tell these patches are note as yet applied to Linus'
kernel so we would not have them via there and I do not recall seeing
them.

I suspect there is going to be some resistance as they are only clearing
the blocks for the file, which would not be deemed 'secure delete' in
normal parlance.
