      Security: Introduce security= boot parameter · 076c54c5
      Ahmed S. Darwish authored
      Add the security= boot parameter. This is done to avoid LSM
      registration clashes in case of more than one bult-in module.
      
      User can choose a security module to enable at boot. If no
      security= boot parameter is specified, only the first LSM
      asking for registration will be loaded. An invalid security
      module name will be treated as if no module has been chosen.
      
      LSM modules must check now if they are allowed to register
      by calling security_module_enable(ops) first. Modify SELinux
      and SMACK to do so.
      
      Do not let SMACK register smackfs if it was not chosen on
      boot. Smackfs assumes that smack hooks are registered and
      the initial task security setup (swapper->security) is done.
