Dear Maintaners,

CONFIG_SECURITY_WRITABLE_HOOKS is nessesarry for write linux security
modules which doesn't compile into vmlinuz. Writing a "linux security
module" as a kernel module is impossible without enable this config.

Please enable this. It is very appreciated.

I don't think that's possible anyway.

This is not a user-configurable Kconfig option, so we can't directly
enable it.  The help text for SECURITY_SELINUX_DISABLE, which selects
it, notes that this is bad for security.

So no, we won't do this.

Ben.
