Tried making the perm permissions faster by perparing queries

Previously, process name was grabbed from `/proc/pid/cmdline`. This was
revealed to be faulty, since the path to the executable might be
relative, and thus would change the result depending on how the program
was called. Also, it made executable renaming a viable bypass of the
entire access control.

I still don't fully undestand how I managed to not think of this before
:)
