Security and IMA hooks are normally named after the function.  For
example, there's a security hook named security_path_truncate() in
handle_truncate().  The new hook after the truncate would either be
named security_post_path_truncate() or ima_post_path_truncate().

do_truncate() is called from a number of places.  Are you sure that
the call to IMA should be in all of them?  security_path_truncate()
isn't in all of the callers.
