My first take on reading these changes above is that you've completely
ignored my previous comments about SELinux access controls around
resource management.  You've leveraged the existing LSM/SELinux hook
as we discussed previously, that's good, but can you explain what
changes you've made to address my concerns about one-off resource
management controls?
