Different use cases require different policies.  Our concern is that
appraising file integrity not be added to the kernel in an ad-hoc
manner.

This rule implements the intent of the original patches Vivek posted.
We might personally disagree with the intent, but that is a totally
separate discussion - one that should have been raised when he posted
the original patches.

thanks,

Mimi
