Subject: [PATCH v6 1/3] LSM: Add /sys/kernel/security/lsm

I got tired of having to find indirect ways to 
determine what security modules are active on a system.
I have added /sys/kernel/security/lsm, which contains a
comma separated list of the active security modules. No
more groping around in /proc/filesystems, which won't
help if the module doesn't support its own filesystem.

I didn't check past discussion, but how do you handle security_delete_hooks()
case (I mean, "selinux" will remain there when reading /sys/kernel/security/lsm
even after it is disabled at runtime)? I think holding module name as one of
"union security_list_options" members will avoid memory allocation handling
and simplify things.

Paul Moore says that SELinux is going to remove the ability
to delete itself in the near future. Since that's the only
module that allows deletion I don't see that it's an issue.

I don't see how that would simplify things, and the memory
allocation handling here is pretty basic.

OK.

I expected we can use simple_read_from_buffer() from iteration loop,
but I found it does not work like I want. So, it did not simplify things.
