Unfortunately I need to re-base it again and manually fix conflicts
with my patch to avoid deferencing the policy prior to initialization.
And I'll need to do it again when/if the patch to convert the policy
rwlock to rcu lands.  So you might want to wait. I'm starting to
wonder if the first patch in the series to rename selinux_state/state
to selinux_ns/ns throughout is a mistake because it produces a lot of
unnecessary conflicts.  Originally I did it because that was the
original naming since the encapsulation started to support namespacing
and then I did a mass rename to selinux_state/state for upstreaming
since I wasn't yet upstreaming the actual namespace support. Renaming
it back again reduces conflicts in the later patches but makes the
first one a pain.  But if I just do a mass rename on all the later
patches then I can drop the first one and avoid these unnecessary
conflicts.  Thoughts?
