snet needs to reintroduce this hook, as it was designed to be: a hook for
updating security informations on objects.
Looking at this and 5/10 again, it seems that you should be able to do what 
you need with the sock_graft() hook.  Am I missing something?

My apologies if we've already discussed this approach previously ...
Third problem (though independent with security_sock_graft()) is that
snet_do_send_event() ignores snet_nl_send_event() failure.
using snet_do_send_event() means that system is sending data to
userspace. the system is not waiting for a verdict from userspace.

If error occurs, we actually loose the information data.
I may be able to write a solution which try to send the data again, but
we need a exit solution for this loop (a number of try ?).
