[Devel] [PATCH 1/1] cr: safely restore a task's securebits

Wed May 27 09:31:12 PDT 2009


As I started doing c/r of LSM credentials, I realized I wasn't
handling securebit yet with the current patchet.  This is on
top of the set I sent out yesterday, and if I'm sendng out another
full patchset then I'll integrate this back into the previous
patches.
