I think this patchset has been posted for long enough with no comments, and no objections, that I can pull this into the selinux/next tree. However, I'll give it until the end of this week just to give folks one last chance to comment. If I don't hear any objections by the end of day on Friday, June 10th I'll go ahead and merge this. -- paul-moore.com
