Just to confirm, is there any situation where:

   iint->flags & IMA_NS_STATUS_FLAGS != status->flags & IMA_NS_STATUS_FLAGS

? i.e. can this line just be:

   return status->flags & IMA_NS_STATUS_FLAGS;
As Guilherme had pointed out, the first & should be |.
Sorry, that mail got filtered somehow, thanks. Per your discussion, I
guess the most defensive way is:

iint->flags & ~IMA_NS_STATUS_FLAGS | status->flags & IMA_NS_STATUS_FLAGS

in case something comes along and sets IMA_AUDITED on the root iint,
we don't want it to propagate to this ns' status unnecessarily.

Anyway, thanks!
