Subject: [PATCH mmotm 1/3] userns: remove unneeded extra argument in selinux's task_has_capability
Date: Wed, 2 Mar 2011 20:56:03 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110303025603.GA10071@peq.hallyn.com> (raw)

The user_namespace argument is not used by task_has_capability, so get
rid of it.  Note that it was spuriously added by the user namespace
patchset, so we're just cleaning up our own mess.
