Yes, should be fixed even though the 3rd patch removes this change. BTW, looking at the 2nd patch's loadpin_is_fs_trusted(). Seems to me you'd do well to pass a 'struct block_device *' to a DM helper rather than force security/loadpin/loadpin.c to mess around with DM device refcounting, etc. -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
