Merge tag 'selinux-pr-20210215' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/selinux
Pull selinux updates from Paul Moore: "We've got a good handful of patches for SELinux this time around; with everything passing the selinux-testsuite and applying cleanly to your tree as of a few minutes ago. The highlights are: - Add support for labeling anonymous inodes, and extend this new support to userfaultfd. - Fallback to SELinux genfs file labeling if the filesystem does not have xattr support. This is useful for virtiofs which can vary in its xattr support depending on the backing filesystem. - Classify and handle MPTCP the same as TCP in SELinux. - Ensure consistent behavior between inode_getxattr and inode_listsecurity when the SELinux policy is not loaded. This fixes a known problem with overlayfs. - A couple of patches to prune some unused variables from the SELinux code, mark private variables as static, and mark other variables as __ro_after_init or __read_mostly" * tag 'selinux-pr-20210215' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/selinux: fs: anon_inodes: rephrase to appropriate kernel-doc userfaultfd: use secure anon inodes for userfaultfd selinux: teach SELinux about anonymous inodes fs: add LSM-supporting anon-inode interface security: add inode_init_security_anon() LSM hook selinux: fall back to SECURITY_FS_USE_GENFS if no xattr support selinux: mark selinux_xfrm_refcount as __read_mostly selinux: mark some global variables __ro_after_init selinux: make selinuxfs_mount static selinux: drop the unnecessary aurule_callback variable selinux: remove unused global variables selinux: fix inconsistency between inode_getxattr and inode_listsecurity selinux: handle MPTCP consistently with TCP
