Vishal Goel 2e962e2fec SMACK: Add new lock for adding entry in smack master list
"smk_set_access()" function adds a new rule entry in subject label specific
list(rule_list) and in global rule list(smack_rule_list) both. Mutex lock
(rule_lock) is used to avoid simultaneous updates. But this lock is subject
label specific lock. If 2 processes tries to add different rules(i.e with
different subject labels) simultaneously, then both the processes can take
the "rule_lock" respectively. So it will cause a problem while adding
entries in master rule list.
Now a new mutex lock(smack_master_list_lock) has been taken to add entry in
smack_rule_list to avoid simultaneous updates of different rules.

============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
