I don't like the 'in_exec' bit in the task_struct, but adding LSM hooks
to let just TOMOYO mark whether you're in exec seems even uglier.

Well I think the patchset is at a stage where it needs a test-spin in
-mm (or something).

The users' list seems quite sparse, though.  Who exactly does use this,
and why?  (I don't mean that to sound adversarial, but while I think I
know how it differs from selinux, I'm not clear on when or why its
differences would be advantageous.)
