Subject: [PATCH 2/2 v4] proc: Add LSM hook checks to /proc/<tid>/timerslack_ns

As requested, this patch checks the existing LSM hooks
task_getscheduler/task_setscheduler when reading or modifying
the task's timerslack value.

Previous versions added new get/settimerslack LSM hooks, but
since they checked the same PROCESS__SET/GETSCHED values as
existing hooks, it was suggested we just use the existing ones.

v2:
 * Initial swing at adding settimerslack LSM hook
v3:
 * Fix current/p switchup bug noted by NickK
 * Add gettimerslack hook suggested by NickK
v4:
 * Dropped adding get/settimerslack LSM hooks, and
   just reuse the get/setscheduler ones.
