io-uring cmd support was added through ee692a21e9bf ("fs,io_uring:
add infrastructure for uring-cmd"), this extended the struct
file_operations to allow a new command which each subsystem can use
to enable command passthrough. Add an LSM specific for the command
passthrough which enables LSMs to inspect the command details.

This was discussed long ago without no clear pointer for something
conclusive, so this enables LSMs to at least reject this new file
operation.
From an io_uring perspective, this looks fine to me. It may be easier if
I take this through my tree due to the moving of the files, or the
security side can do it but it'd have to then wait for merge window (and
post io_uring branch merge) to do so. Just let me know. If done outside
of my tree, feel free to add:

Paul, Casey, Jens,

should this be picked up now that we're one week into the merge window?
