Subject: [PATCH] LSM changes for 2.5.58

[PATCH] Add LSM hook to do_kern_mount

This patch adds a security_sb_kern_mount hook call to the do_kern_mount
function.  This hook enables initialization of the superblock security
information of all superblock objects.  Placing a hook in do_kern_mount
was originally suggested by Al Viro.  This hook is used by SELinux to
setup the superblock security state and eliminated the need for the
superblock_precondition function.
