Provide a new lsm hook which may be used to allow mknod in
non-initial userns. If access to the device is guarded by this
hook, access to mknod may be granted by checking cap mknod for
unprivileged user namespaces.
By default this will return -EPERM if no lsm implements the
hook. A first lsm to use this will be the lately converted
cgroup_device module.
