From: William Roberts <william.c.roberts@xxxxxxxxx>
This corrects issues in client filesystems, like sysfs, where LSMs missed
the opportunity to initialize inodes. In the case of SELinux this prevented
newly created files from inheriting their parent's label. This has posed
many issues on Android where transient sysfs files were defaulting to the
sysfs wide label, rather than their parent, which is the normal behavior
for other filesystems. Without this, access controls for these files had
to be granted on the file system wide label, rather then a file specific
label. The result of which over-privilege the caller but also can cause
CTS failures.
