How about this then?

I haven't removed the old fscreate overriding patch yet, not have I put in the
error handling in CacheFiles.

And whilst selinux_fscreate_as_secid() does perform a MAC check, I think that
PROCESS__SETFSCREATE is probably the wroing thing to use. I think there should
be a PROCESS__SETFSCREATEAS or similar. I assume that doing that would require
the userspace policy compiler to be modified.
