[PATCH 2/7] Add a concept of a "secure" anonymous file

[Daniel Colascione]

A secure anonymous file is one we hooked up to its own inode (as
opposed to the shared inode we use for non-secure anonymous files). A
new selinux hook gives security modules a chance to initialize, label,
and veto the creation of these secure anonymous files. Security
modules had limit ability to interact with non-secure anonymous files
due to all of these files sharing a single inode.
