[PATCH 23/28] security: Introduce LSM_ORDER_LAST

From: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu at huawei.com>

Introduce LSM_ORDER_LAST, to satisfy the requirement of LSMs willing to be
the last, e.g. the 'integrity' LSM, without changing the kernel command
line or configuration.

As for LSM_ORDER_FIRST, LSMs with LSM_ORDER_LAST are always enabled and put
at the end of the LSM list in no particular order.
