    net,lsm,selinux: revert the security_sctp_assoc_established() hook · 1aa3b220
    Paul Moore authored
    This patch reverts two prior patches, e7310c94
    ("security: implement sctp_assoc_established hook in selinux") and
    7c2ef024 ("security: add sctp_assoc_established hook"), which
    create the security_sctp_assoc_established() LSM hook and provide a
    SELinux implementation.  Unfortunately these two patches were merged
    without proper review (the Reviewed-by and Tested-by tags from
    Richard Haines were for previous revisions of these patches that
    were significantly different) and there are outstanding objections
    from the SELinux maintainers regarding these patches.
    
    Work is currently ongoing to correct the problems identified in the
    reverted patches, as well as others that have come up during review,
    but it is unclear at this point in time when that work will be ready
    for inclusion in the mainline kernel.  In the interest of not keeping
    objectionable code in the kernel for multiple weeks, and potentially
    a kernel release, we are reverting the two problematic patches.
