I agree that a strict hierarchy of the levels should be enforced.
Currently the kernel has no idea of 'level', it's just an artificial
concept that lives in userspace. This patch would be the first place
to add that magic shift '48' to the kernel.
In my opinion it would be sufficient to do the enforcement in user
space, as it is of no technical nature.
