To: Andrew Morton; +Cc: linux-kernel, Stephen Smalley
A further fix is needed for selinuxfs link count management, to ensure
that the count is correct for the parent directory when a subdirectory is
created. This is only required for the root directory currently, but the
code has been updated for the general case.
Please apply.
