The BPF LSM programs are allowed to attach to LSM hooks. This enables

However, many APIs and parts of kernel aren't covered by existing LSM
hooks and this would be beneficial to extend the coverage.
Dunno. Do you have any reason to believe that any of the CVEs your LLM
gathered for you here are actually getting exploited? Spot checking 
a few they seem to be mostly driver bugs. What security model do you
have in mind? Untrusted/malicious users with physical NIC access?
