Using guest mem inodes allows us to store metadata for the backing memory on the inode. Metadata will be added in a later patch to support HugeTLB pages.
Metadata about backing memory should not be stored on the file, since the file represents a guest_memfd's binding with a struct kvm, and metadata about backing memory is not unique to a specific binding and struct kvm.

So why do other alloc_anon_inode callers not need security_inode_init_security_anon?
