There may be more than one LSM that provides IPC data
for auditing. Change security_ipc_getsecid() to fill in
a lsmblob structure instead of the u32 secid. The
audit data structure containing the secid will be updated
later, so there is a bit of scaffolding here.
"updated later", that's better, thank you. If I can go even a step
further, it would be really nice if you could provide a brief
explanation, a sentence or two is okay, on what you intended it to be
when it is done in this patchset/iteration.
