There are a couple of checkpatch.pl warnings that need to be addressed before these patches can be upstreamed. I'd also like to see some Reviews/Acks for them as well. For the time being these patches are queued in the #next-integrity- queued branch. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/zohar/linux-integrity. git/ thanks!
