Greg and I have different opinions on what is classified as a good
candidate for the -stable trees, but in my opinion this patch series
doesn't qualify.  There are a lot of dependencies, it is intertwined
with a lot of code, and the issue that this patchset fixes has been
around for a *long* time.  I personally feel the risk of backporting
this to -stable does not outweigh the potential wins.

My current opinion is that backporting this patchset is not a good
idea; it gets a NACK from me.

Daniel, in the future if this is something you want to see backported
please bring this issue up on the SELinux mailing list when the
patchset is originally posted so we can have a discussion about it and
plan accordingly.
