It think this approach is worth pursuing, so that we can also see what's
there, and determine if there is a need for some form of stacking, or
whether we can consolidate some of this into library code which the
various LSMs utilize.

People who don't want to run SELinux / AppArmor / Smack / TOMOYO etc., run
can still get some protection.
