Patch 2/3 is a cleanup that can go > through the NFS tree. Generally when patches are posted as patchsets I would apply the whole patchset assuming they patches were all good, however it does seem like patch 2/3 is not strictly related to the other two? That said, as long as your ACK applies to all three patches in the patchset I have no problem applying all of them to the selinux/next tree once some of the other LSM maintainers provide their ACKs (while there may only a SELinux implementation of the hook at the moment, we need to make sure the other LSMs are okay with the basic hook concept). Also, did the v4 posting only include patch 1/3? I see v3 postings for the other two patches, but the only v4 patch I see is 1/3 ... ? -- paul moore www.paul-moore.com
