Thinking about this a bit more, I'm not 100% sure if this
will allow the security rules we want. Heap ids are assigned
dynamically and therefore so will the /dev/ionX designation.

be able to write rules to differentiate between /dev/ionX and
/dev/ionY without knowing the values at boottime.

So I think we need a different way to match the heap ids to
get the security we want unless my understanding of security
policies is wrong and we can dynamically specify permissions.

Thanks,
