The field default_enabled is used at the time of initialization. The
lsm_static_call::active is a static key which we really cannot use at
initialization time from the various LSMs directly. I don't see a way
out of this one IMHO.

Fair, and that makes the implementation much simpler too. I created a
security_hook_toggle function in security.c which implements this
functionality.
