Subject: evm: limit verifying current security.evm integrity
X-Git-Tag: v3.2-rc1~190^2~20^2~3
X-Git-Url: https://openfabrics.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a924ce0b35875ef9512135b46a32f4150fd700b2;p=~emulex%2Finfiniband.git

evm: limit verifying current security.evm integrity

evm_protect_xattr unnecessarily validates the current security.evm
integrity, before updating non-evm protected extended attributes
and other file metadata. This patch limits validating the current
security.evm integrity to evm protected metadata.
