If anything, it's rather security_past_create_without_open(), and I really wonder where does the equivalent of those actions happen if you do close(open("foo", O_CREAT|O_RDWR, 0777)) instead of mknod("foo", 0777, 0). I mean, you can substitute the former for the latter, so anything that must be done by the hook in mknod(2) would better be covered at some point in hooks within open(2)... Some explanation of the relationship between those would be nice.
