In preparation for removing security_old_inode_init_security(), switch to
security_inode_init_security().

Extend the existing ocfs2_initxattrs() to take the
ocfs2_security_xattr_info structure from fs_info, and populate the
name/value/len triple with the first xattr provided by LSMs.

Hi Mark, Joel, Joseph

some time ago I sent this patch set to switch to the newer
function security_inode_init_security(). Almost all the other parts of
this patch set have been reviewed, and the patch set itself should be
ready to be merged.

I kindly ask if you could have a look at this patch and give your
Reviewed-by, so that Paul could take the patch set.

I've been pushing to clean up some of the LSM interfaces to try and
simplify things and remove as many special cases as possible,
Roberto's work in this patchset is part of that.  I would really
appreciate it if the vfs/ocfs2 folks could give patch 2/6 a quick look
to make sure you are okay with the changes.

I realize that the various end-of-year holidays tend to slow things
down a bit, but this patchset has been on the lists for over a month
now; if I don't hear anything in the next week or two I'll assume you
folks are okay with these patches ...

Hi Paul

is this patch set going to land in 6.3?

Hi Roberto,

I had really hoped the vfs/ocfs2 folks would have commented on this by
now, but it's been over two months now with no comments that I can see
so I think we have to do it ourselves via the LSM tree.  It's
obviously too late for the upcoming merge window, so no v6.3, but I
think we can merge it *after* the upcoming merge window closes,
assuming we get ACKs from Mimi on the EVM bits (I still need to review
it too, but I'm not expecting anything too bad).
