security_filter_rule_match() is security_audit_rule_match() in
sheep's clothing. Using the cred secid in this case, where the
task secid is used elsewhere is going to lead to tears. It's
going to make *me* cry as I work on untangling secids for
stacking/namespaces. I can't predict how else it's going to
bite us, but I'm betting on it.
