v2: Include all commits from original series, and include commit ids
This is a backport for stable of my series to fix a race condition in selinuxfs during policy load:
Has this race condition always been present, or is this a regression that is being fixed from previously working kernels?
So this issue has always been there, but:
If it's always been present, why not just use 5.9 to solve it?
Because it was merged for 5.10 rather than 5.9, which is a few months out, so Daniel is looking to see if we can have it in 5.8/5.4 to close the gap.
I would have to wait for 5.10-rc1 at the earliest, and get the selinux maintainers ack for this :)
No objections; if the selinux folks feel unhappy with this it'll just wait for 5.10.
