security: remove root_plug

Browse Source 
Remove the root_plug example LSM code.  It's unmaintained and
    increasingly broken in various ways.

    Made at the 2009 Kernel Summit in Tokyo!

This is a sample LSM module that should only be used as such.
It prevents any programs running with egid == 0 if a specific
USB device is not present in the system.
See <http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=6279> for
more information about this module.
