This new hook will be used in the IMA code (patch 7/7) to find inodes that
must be measured by checking the security label applied to file descriptors.
This new criteria allows to easily measure all inodes opened by a kernel
service because their file descriptors have the same label of what the
service provided with other credentials to the function dentry_open().
