# The following is the BitKeeper ChangeSet Log
# --------------------------------------------
# 03/06/02	chris@wirex.com	1.1264
# [LSM] early init for security modules.  As discussed before, this allows
# for early initialization of security modules when compiled statically
# into the kernel.  The standard do_initcalls is too late for complete
# coverage of all filesystems and threads, for example.
