Linus,

Three fairly small LSM framework patches for the upcoming merge window,
but I wanted to mention that this pull request isn't based on the usual
-rc1 tag, but rather on a VFS merge that happened shortly after -rc2 so
we could pick up an important xattr/LSM fix.

- Add Nicolas Bouchinet and Xiu Jianfeng as Lockdown maintainers

  The Lockdown LSM has been without a dedicated mantainer since its
  original acceptance upstream, and it has suffered as a result.
  Thankfully we have two new volunteers who together I believe have
  the background and desire to help ensure Lockdown is properly
  supported.

- Remove the unused cap_mmap_file() declaration.

  Included in the LSM framework pull request with Serge's ACK.

Paul
