[PATCH] selinux: fix selinux_netlbl_inode_permission() locking
do not call a sleeping lock API in an RCU read section. lock_sock_nested can sleep, its BH counterpart doesn't. selinux_netlbl_inode_permission() needs to use the BH counterpart unconditionally. Compile tested. From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> added BH disabling, because this function can be called from non-atomic contexts too, so a naked bh_lock_sock() would be deadlock-prone. Boot-tested the resulting kernel. Signed-off-by: Parag Warudkar <paragw@paragw.zapto.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
