Since the kernel only adds flags and doesn't clear them, isn't safe to
just consider prot? Oh, you mentioned it in the changelog, maybe just
for ipe_file_mprotect().

Uhm, I think some considerations that IMA does for mmap() are relevant
also for IPE.
For example, look at mmap_violation_check(). It checks if there are
writable mappings, and if yes, it denies the access.
Similarly for mprotect(), is adding PROT_EXEC safe?

Uhm, maybe I would incorporate patch 1 with this.
