+/**
+ * anon_inode_getfile_secure - Like anon_inode_getfile(), but creates a new
+ * !S_PRIVATE anon inode rather than reuse the
+ * singleton anon inode and calls the
+ * inode_init_security_anon() LSM hook. This
+ * allows for both the inode to have its own
+ * security context and for the LSM to enforce
+ * policy on the inode's creation.
+ *
+ * @name: [in] name of the "class" of the new file
+ * @fops: [in] file operations for the new file
+ * @priv: [in] private data for the new file (will be file's private_data)
+ * @flags: [in] flags
+ * @context_inode:
+ * [in] the logical relationship with the new inode (optional)
+ *
+ * The LSM may use @context_inode in inode_init_security_anon(), but a
+ * reference to it is not held. Returns the newly created file* or an error
+ * pointer. See the anon_inode_getfile() documentation for more information.
