This patchset includes an update to the NetLabel/secid-reconciliation patch,
replacing my "v3" patch from earlier this week, and a bugfix patch to cure a
race condition found during testing this week.  The bugfix patch does not
rely on the secid patches and should be merged regardless as it fixes a bug
which has been around since the very first NetLabel patches (not sure why I
didn't see this sooner).

FYI- I am no NetLabel expert, and the pathset I sent out that day included
the peersid changes. And since you were going to have to post a patch for
that
again, I thought it best you ported and reposted the entire patch again.

And let's keep this going like this on the selinux list. When all the
testing is done and selinux ok's the patchsets, I will combine them
and send them onto netdev. How does that sound?

I would, but it currently is premature. As James says, let's
get policy done, the design proven, and tested and then we will
go to netdev with one patchset.
