I won't argue, I don't agree with your reasoning, but I'm not opposed to
this result. We have 3 competing suggestions:

Jan suggested we:
completely eliminate secmark from procfs+netlink and only export secctx
in netlink.

Eric suggested we:
completely eliminate secmark from procfs+netlink and then export secctx
in procfs+netlink

sounds like James suggested we:
continue to export meaningless and confusing secmark from procfs+netlink
and then export secctx in procfs+netlink as well.

I'm going to implement James' idea and resend the patch series. Any
strong objections?
