The LSM hook can be used by any security module (not just SELinux) to 
measure their data.

I have implemented measurement in SELinux to illustrate the usage. 
Maybe, I can add the check you have suggested for now and when more 
security modules start using this IMA policy additional checks can be 
added as appropriate.
