Please factor this and the lsm failure case out into a single
out_free_inode goto label.

Please put your hook into inode_permission.  Note that in inode
permission and lots of callers there is no path available so don't pass
it.  Please pass the full MAY_FOO mask for new interfaces and do
filtering that won't break if new ones are introduced.

Sorry, but I don't think we can bloat the inode even further for this.

don't bother to mention the filename in the top of file comment.
