Oh, SMACK starts to use security_socket_post_accept() hook?

Then why not move security_socket_post_accept() to before fd_install()?
If file descriptor table is shared between multiple processes,
another process can reach not-yet-labeled-by-security_socket_post_accept()
accept()ed socket.

(Well, I'm happy if security_socket_post_accept() can return error
because TOMOYO wants to implement personal firewall.)
