Subject: [PATCH security-next v5 10/30] LSM: Don't ignore initialization failures
Date:   Wed, 10 Oct 2018 17:18:26 -0700
Message-Id: <20181011001846.30964-11-keescook@chromium.org>
In-Reply-To: <20181011001846.30964-1-keescook@chromium.org>
References: <20181011001846.30964-1-keescook@chromium.org>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

LSM initialization failures have traditionally been ignored. We should
at least WARN when something goes wrong.
