Subject: [patch 1/1] NetLabel: add missing rcu_dereference() calls in the LSM domain mapping hash table

h
Content-Disposition: inline; filename=netlabel-rcu_deref_fix

The LSM domain mapping head table pointer was not being referenced via the RCU
safe dereferencing function, rcu_dereference().  This patch adds those missing
calls to the NetLabel code.

This has been tested using recent linux-2.6 git kernels with no visible
regressions.
