This is a fairly comprehensive patch, which appears to have some
performance detrement to the TOMOYO matcher.  Though as its already
upstream I guess its the way things are going.

Would there be userspace component interlock required if the kernel
had this support, if there is taking this now might help with the LTS
backports effort?  Though I assume our TOMOYO userbase is pretty small,
I assum its not a default option.  Does anyone know how extensive our
tomoyo userbase is?
