From: Eric Paris <eparis@...hat.com>
To: linux-security-module@...r.kernel.org
Cc: jmorris@...ei.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org
Subject: [PATCH -v2] security: remove dead hook acct
Unused hook. Remove.
Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@...hat.com>
---
This is a resend of the broken patch I sent earlier. It was the last patch in
the series and I had uncommitted changes in my repo which fixed the borkeness.
James you should apply all of the patches I originally sent except the last
one. Use this one instead.
