Subject: linux-next: build warning after merge of the vfs tree

Hi Al,

After merging the vfs tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc allnoconfig)
produced this warning:

fs/namespace.c: In function 'do_mount':
fs/namespace.c:2219:8: warning: passing argument 3 of 'security_sb_mount' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [enabled by default]
include/linux/security.h:1967:19: note: expected 'char *' but argument is of type 'const char *'

Introduced by commit 5804bc88667e ("consitify do_mount() arguments").
The prototype of the !CONFIG_SECURITY version was not completely updated.

Cheers,
Stephen Rothwell                    sfr@...b.auug.org.au
