[-mm patch] security/ cleanups

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch contains the following cleanups that are now possible:
- remove the unused security_operations->inode_xattr_getsuffix
- remove the no longer used security_operations->unregister_security
- remove some no longer required exit code
- remove a bunch of no longer used exports
