Quoting David P. Quigley ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):
> This patch modifies the interface to inode_getsecurity to have the function
> return a buffer containing the security blob and its length via parameters
> instead of relying on the calling function to give it an appropriately sized
> buffer. Security blobs obtained with this function should be freed using the
> release_secctx LSM hook. This alleviates the problem of the caller having to
> guess a length and preallocate a buffer for this function allowing it to be
> used elsewhere for Labeled NFS. The patch also removed the unused err
> parameter. The conversion is similar to the one performed by Al Viro for the

Looks good. Looks like it's already hit -mm, but anyway
