lsm: Add hooks to the TUN driver
The TUN driver lacks any LSM hooks which makes it difficult for LSM modules,
such as SELinux, to enforce access controls on network traffic generated by
TUN users; this is particularly problematic for virtualization apps such as
QEMU and KVM. This patch adds three new LSM hooks designed to control the
creation and attachment of TUN devices, the hooks are:
* security_tun_dev_create()
Provides access control for the creation of new TUN devices
* security_tun_dev_post_create()
Provides the ability to create the necessary socket LSM state for newly
created TUN devices
* security_tun_dev_attach()
Provides access control for attaching to existing, persistent TUN devices
and the ability to update the TUN device's socket LSM state as necessary
