This is a reduced version of a patch that I originally submitted a while ago.

In short, the fanotify API currently does not provide any means for user space
programs to receive events specifically when a file has been opened with the
intent to be executed. The FAN_EXEC flag will be set within the event mask when
a object has been opened with one of the open flags being __FMODE_EXEC.

Linux is used as an Operating System in some products, with an environment that
can be certified under the Common Criteria Operating System Protection Profile
(OSPP). This is a formal threat model for a class of technology. It requires
specific countermeasures to mitigate threats. It requires documentation to
explain how a product implements these countermeasures. It requires proof via a
test suite to demonstrate that the requirements are met, observed and checked by
an independent qualified third party. The latest set of requirements for OSPP
v4.2 can be found here:

https://www.niap-ccevs.org/Profile/Info.cfm?PPID=424&id=424

If you look on page 58, you will see the following requirement:

FPT_SRP_EXT.1 Software Restriction Policies   FPT_SRP_EXT.1.1

The OS shall restrict execution to only programs which match an administrator
specified [selection:
        file path,
        file digital signature,
        version,
        hash,
        [assignment: other characteristics]
]

This patch is to help aid in meeting this requirement.
