    Things changed since the 2001_08_16 patch:
     - added sys_security syscall for ia64			(Greg K-H)
     - added unix socket hooks.				(Chris Vance)
     - fixed { type in netfilter code			(James Morris)
     - changed syscall hook name to sys_security		(Chris Wright)
     - added an id parameter to the syscall hook		(lsm group)
     - changed the syscall arguments to be "unsigned int"
       instead of "int".					(Greg K-H)
     - patch to fix the documentation build			(Lachlan McIlroy)
     - Changed the netlink socket code and the oom_kill
       code to call hook functions rather than directly 
       setting or testing capability bits.			(Stephen Smalley)
     - Two new hooks were added for the netlink socket
       code -netlink_send and netlink_recv.			(Stephen Smalley)
     - replaced the single swapcontrol hook with separate
       swapon/swapoff hooks.				(Wayne Salamon)
     - Defined hooks for capget and capset to move the code
       from these calls that examines or modifies the
       capability bits into the module.			(Stephen Smalley)
     - added nfsservctl syscall hook and swapon/swapoff
       hooks						(Wayne Salamon)
