does it make sense that dac_override get's checked before dac_read_search?

A long time ago Eric Paris hinted that the policy WRT dac_override
could probably be cleaned up.

I suspect that most of the the time dac_override is not needed (too
coarse). Instead dac_read_search would be sufficient for the common
scenario where root processes traverse locations where it doesn't have
DAC permissions to traverse.

The problem is that dac_override seems to be checked first. but
dac_override , if i understand it, is broader than dac_read_search

so why is dac_read_search not checked before dac_override?
