Changing security_mumble() often requires changes in either VFS, audit or
networking code. Even simple changes can require extensive review and
difficult to obtain Acked-by's. It may be the correct approach, but it
won't be easy or quick.

Identifying all the hooks that could be "dangerous" isn't an easy chore,
and some of the "dangerous" hooks are key to implementing classes of policy
and absolutely necessary for audit support.
