Files created in / I label as etc_runtime_t, we have never come up with
a better label.



Miroslav added system_conf_t so firewall apps could edit these files

Redhat does want /usr/local/src labeled src_t or /usr/src for that matter

Fix labels on chroot environments

I think that you couldn't come up with a better label because there is
no good label. There isn't a standard concept of what files created in
the root directory are.

I'm still thinking about this one. It still seems weird, but I'm not
sure why.

Otherwise merged.

I figured out what the kernel_stream_connect was. Plymouthd runs in the
initrd and when xdm or boot is complete, It sends a message to tell the
plymouthd to stop running.
