As Tetsuo mentions in the changelog, he aims to revive the hook before 
modifying it for stacking.  I would also want to see a strong use-case for 
the stacking aspect (e.g. an existing LSM planning to use it, or as part 
of a proposal to merge a new LSM).

JJ: can you confirm that you'll use the revived hook in AppArmor?  I can 
see your acked-by but the context of it is lost due to the lack of mail 
archives.
