Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/security-testing-2.6
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/security-testing-2.6: (44 commits) nommu: Provide mmap_min_addr definition. TOMOYO: Add description of lists and structures. TOMOYO: Remove unused field. integrity: ima audit dentry_open failure TOMOYO: Remove unused parameter. security: use mmap_min_addr indepedently of security models TOMOYO: Simplify policy reader. TOMOYO: Remove redundant markers. SELinux: define audit permissions for audit tree netlink messages TOMOYO: Remove unused mutex. tomoyo: avoid get+put of task_struct smack: Remove redundant initialization. integrity: nfsd imbalance bug fix rootplug: Remove redundant initialization. smack: do not beyond ARRAY_SIZE of data integrity: move ima_counts_get integrity: path_check update IMA: Add __init notation to ima functions IMA: Minimal IMA policy and boot param for TCB IMA policy selinux: remove obsolete read buffer limit from sel_read_bool ...
