There is no requirement that a security module use
"security.<security module name>" to name it's attributes.
Smack, for example, uses "security.SMACK64". Further, Smack
uses multiple attributes; "security.SMACK64TRANSMUTE",
"security.SMACK64MMAP", "security.SMACK64EXEC" as well as
"security.SMACK64".

Also, when (if) we get full module stacking in place you
will need to handle the possibility that there may be more
than one security module providing security xattrs.
