The new tree contains all of the selinux tests present in the LTP.  You
cannot however simply replace the ltp version of the tests with this
tree, as this tree is a standalone testsuite and will not run within the
ltp test harness. This testsuite is based on the original standalone
selinux testsuite that was contributed by us to IBM to port to the LTP.
We have internally maintained this testsuite in parallel to the ltp
version as we have found it easier to set up, use, debug, and maintain.
