[PATCH v1 0/2] Add LSM access controls for io_uring_setup

This patchset provides the changes required for controlling access to
the io_uring_setup system call by LSMs. It does this by adding a new
hook to io_uring. It also provides the SELinux implementation for a new
permission, io_uring { setup }, using the new hook.

This is important because existing io_uring hooks only support limiting
the sharing of credentials and access to the sensitive uring_cmd file
op. Users of LSMs may also want the ability to tightly control which
callers can retrieve an io_uring capable fd from the kernel, which is
needed for all subsequent io_uring operations.

This was tested by running the liburing test suite on a kernel
containing these patches.
