[PATCH v4 20/19] LSM: Correct file blob free empty blob check

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Instead of checking if the kmem_cache for file blobs
has been initialized check if the blob is NULL. This
allows non-blob using modules to do other kinds of
clean up in the security_file_free hooks.
