Why is it desirable to allow LSM to configure accessibility to io_uring?
Look at some of the existing access controls that some LSMs, including
Smack, have implemented to control access to certain parts of io_uring
such as credential sharing.  While having a control point at the top
of io_uring_setup() is a fairly coarse way to restrict io_uring, the
advantage is that it is very simple.
