Subject: [PATCH -next] smack: Remove the redundant lsm_inode_alloc
Date:   Fri, 10 Jun 2022 17:23:07 +0800
Message-ID: <20220610092307.30311-1-xiujianfeng@huawei.com>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain
Precedence: bulk

It's not possible for inode->i_security to be NULL here because every
inode will call inode_init_always and then lsm_inode_alloc to alloc
memory for inode->security, this is what LSM infrastructure management
do, so remove this redundant code.
