For the BPF LSM. I'm talking the same place for al LSMs.

I'm not generally opposed to kfuncs ofc but here it just seems a bit
pointless. What we want is to keep SB_I_{NODEV,MANAGED_DEVICES} confined
to alloc_super(). The only central place it's raised where we control
all locking and logic. So it doesn't even have to appear in any
security_*() hooks.
