  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.
