Add an integer member "features" to the struct lsm_id which
identifies the API related data associated with each security
module. The initial set of features maps to information that
has traditionaly been available in /proc/self/attr.

Again, be explicit about size please.  And documentation.

Again, please drop.

Where is it documented what these attributes actually mean?
