I guess this wasn't against current selinux next branch?
patching file security/selinux/ss/services.c
Hunk #1 succeeded at 2145 (offset 18 lines).
Hunk #2 succeeded at 2263 (offset 39 lines).
Hunk #3 succeeded at 2303 with fuzz 1 (offset 47 lines).
Hunk #4 succeeded at 2323 (offset 42 lines).
But otherwise it looked good to me.
