Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [High] The hook selinux_update_lsmprop unconditionally returns 0, short-circuiting call_int_hook and preventing other LSMs from updating their properties.

SELinux: hooks for secctx_to_lsmprop and update_lsmprop

This commit implements the secctx_to_lsmprop and update_lsmprop hooks for
the SELinux module. These additions allow SELinux to interact with the new
lsm_prop structures for context and property updates.

[Severity: High]
Does returning 0 unconditionally here break LSM stacking?

If security_update_lsmprop() is called with an lsmid targeted at another
module (e.g., LSM_ID_SMACK), the SELinux hook will execute first. Because 0
differs from the hook's default return value (-EOPNOTSUPP), call_int_hook()
will break the loop and return 0 immediately.

The target LSM's hook will never be reached, and it will silently fail to
update its properties.
