lsm: move the perf hook comments to security/security.c
This patch relocates the LSM hook function comments to the function definitions, in keeping with the current kernel conventions. This should make the hook descriptions more easily discoverable and easier to maintain. While formatting changes have been done to better fit the kernel-doc style, content changes have been kept to a minimum and limited to text which was obviously incorrect and/or outdated. It is expected the future patches will improve the quality of the function header comments. Acked-by: Casey Schaufler <casey@schaufler-ca.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <paul@paul-moore.com>
