There is a time where we need to calculate a context without the
inode having been created yet. To do this we take the negative dentry and
calculate a context based on the process and the parent directory contexts.

Linus won't accept a patch that changes the security code from Bruce or
myself without acks from the security maintainers. I assume that means
we need to get at least an ack from James Morris, and then possibly
Stephen and Eric too...



I have an email from James Morris saying that the changes should go through your tree. Should I get him to ack these patches so you can pass them through?
