LSM: add SafeSetID module that gates setid calls
SafeSetID gates the setid family of syscalls to restrict UID/GID transitions from a given UID/GID to only those approved by a system-wide whitelist. These restrictions also prohibit the given UIDs/GIDs from obtaining auxiliary privileges associated with CAP_SET{U/G}ID, such as allowing a user to set up user namespace UID mappings. For now, only gating the set*uid family of syscalls is supported, with support for set*gid coming in a future patch set.

+ SafeSetID is an LSM module that gates the setid family of syscalls to
+ restrict UID/GID transitions from a given UID/GID to only those
+ approved by a system-wide whitelist. These restrictions also prohibit
+ the given UIDs/GIDs from obtaining auxiliary privileges associated
+ with CAP_SET{U/G}ID, such as allowing a user to set up user namespace
+ UID mappings.
+
+ If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
