Subject: [PATCH V2 06/15] taint: Add taint for insecure
Date:   Thu, 31 May 2018 10:58:36 -0700
Message-Id: <1527789525-8857-7-git-send-email-chang.seok.bae@intel.com>
In-Reply-To: <1527789525-8857-1-git-send-email-chang.seok.bae@intel.com>
References: <1527789525-8857-1-git-send-email-chang.seok.bae@intel.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

When adding new feature support, patches need to be
incrementally applied and tested with temporal parameters.
For such testing (or root-only) purposes, the new flag
will serve to tag the kernel taint state properly.
