Right, it would be better if I can specify the prefix of the LSM that should
execute the audit_rule_match() hook.

For example, I would like to specify in the IMA policy:

measure subj_type=infoflow:tcb

'infoflow:tcb' would be the value of the 'lsmrule' parameter of
security_audit_rule_match().

The rule would be evaluated only by Infoflow LSM, and not SELinux.
