As mentioned in the other emails, I think this could trivially be
converted into an LSM: all the hooks are available AFAICT. If you only
want to introspect execve _happening_, you can use bprm_creds_for_exec
which is called a few lines above. Otherwise, my prior suggestion ("the
exec has happened" hook via brpm_cred_committing, etc).

The place for this would be put_task_struct, and the LSM hook is
task_free. :) (The only caveat with task_free hook is that it may be
called in non-process context due to being freed during RCU, etc. In
practice, this is unlikely to cause problems.)

Since you don't need "orig", this is also trivially an LSM hook.
dup_task_struct() is called by copy_process(), which will also call the
task_alloc LSM hook later on.
