These hooks pose a similar problem for stacking as with the
[gs]etprocattr hooks, although [gs]etsecurity have the benefit of
already taking a distinguishing name suffix (the part after the
security. prefix). Note also that inode_getsecurity returns the number
of bytes used/required on success.

The proposed inode_init_security hook will likewise have an issue for
stacking.
