Subject: [PATCH 18/18] LSM: Don't ignore initialization failures
Date: Sat, 15 Sep 2018 17:30:59 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180916003059.1046-19-keescook@chromium.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180916003059.1046-1-keescook@chromium.org>

LSM initialization failures have traditionally been ignored. We should
at least WARN when something goes wrong.
