Thanks Russell!

Just a quick email to let you all know that with the below code in my
build script, I successfully copied in and loaded the SELinux policy in
the initrd, and my EOPNOTSUPP errors disappeared, allowing me to boot
the system!

That's Good Enough™ for me for the moment, and I can revisit using a
more minimal policy or similar later if necessary. For now, I'm going to
ensure I'm using Russell's latest Debian Jessie-compatible SELinux
policy to see what AVC denials I'm getting, before deciding whether to
just go with that and tweak it to do the few lockdowns I need, or learn
how to write a new one from scratch.

I suspect writing a full policy will be deferred until quite some time
later if I can get something small sorted out in the short-term, as I'm
on a reasonably tight timeline at the moment, having spent a month
fighting this problem and the ones leading up to it.

Thanks again for all your help everyone!
