[RFC][PATCH 2/2 v3] security: Add task_settimerslack/task_gettimerslack LSM hook

From: John Stultz
Date: Mon Jul 18 2016 - 16:11:26 EST


As requested, this patch implements a task_settimerslack and
task_gettimerslack LSM hooks so that the /proc/<tid>/timerslack_ns
interface can have finer grained security policies applied to it.

I've kept the CAP_SYS_NICE check in the timerslack_ns_write/show
functions, as hiding it in the LSM hook seems too opaque, and doesn't
seem like a widely enough adopted practice.

Don't really know what I'm doing here, so close review would be
appreciated!
