I don't think that is the way LSM is heading right now at all.  So I
removed the authoritative part of your patch and just made it a small,
boring restrictive hook :)

Here's a reason why the restrictive hook has a much better chance at
getting approved initially, simpler.  Much simpler.  Very easy to read
and understand, and very little chance of messing things up.

thanks for the patch,
