Print the content of current->comm in messages generated by lockdown to
indicate a restriction that was hit.  This makes it a bit easier to find
out what caused the message.

The message now patterned something like:

        Lockdown: <comm>: <what> is restricted; see man kernel_lockdown.7

To satisfy my paranoia, can you just add here:

		if (WARN(what > LOCKDOWN_..._MAX))
			return -EPERM;

With that:
