Handle 33 filesystem-related LSM hooks for the Landlock filesystem
event: LANDLOCK_SUBTYPE_EVENT_FS.

A Landlock event wrap LSM hooks for similar kernel object types (e.g.
struct file, struct path...). Multiple LSM hooks can trigger the same
Landlock event.

Landlock handle nine coarse-grained actions: read, write, execute, new,
get, remove, ioctl, lock and fcntl. Each of them abstract LSM hook
access control in a way that can be extended in the future.

The Landlock LSM hook registration is done after other LSM to only run
actions from user-space, via eBPF programs, if the access was granted by
major (privileged) LSMs.

this looks wrong. casting super_block to dentry?

more general question: why you're not wrapping all useful
arguments? Like in the above dentry can be acted upon
by the landlock rule and it's readily available...

The limitation of only 2 args looks odd.
Is it a hard limitation ? how hard to extend?
