ima_appraise_tcb rules:
dont_appraise fsmagic=PROC_SUPER_MAGIC
.
.
.
dont_appraise fsmagic=SELINUX_MAGIC
appraise fowner=0

ima_secureboot:
appraise fowner=0 func=bprm appraise_type=optional

The ima_appraise_tcb appraise rule includes everything that would match
the ima_secureboot rule. It isn't possible to combine the two policies.
