Subject: [PATCH] selinuxfs: Fix sel_write_enforce broken return value
Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2015 18:01:35 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1427158895.16851.70.camel@perches.com> (raw)

Return a negative error value like the rest
of the entries in this function.

Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com>

Maybe this should be stable, it goes back to
commit b77a493b1dc8 ("SELinux: standardize return code
handling in selinuxfs.c") back in Nov 2010, but it's
guarded by a #ifdef CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_DEVELOP
so it probably doesn't matter much.
