[PATCH v4 7/7] lsm: Remove security_sb_mount and security_move_mount

Fri May 15 20:01:58 UTC 2026
Now that all LSMs have been converted to granular mount hooks,
remove the old hooks:
- security_sb_mount(): removed from lsm_hook_defs.h, security.h,
security.c, and its call in path_mount().
- security_move_mount(): removed and replaced by security_mount_move()
in do_move_mount(). All LSMs now use mount_move exclusively.
Code generated with the assistance of Claude, reviewed by human.
