Merge branch 'next-general' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security

Pull general security layer updates from James Morris:

 - Convert security hooks from list to hlist, a nice cleanup, saving
   about 50% of space, from Sargun Dhillon.

 - Only pass the cred, not the secid, to kill_pid_info_as_cred and
   security_task_kill (as the secid can be determined from the cred),
   from Stephen Smalley.

 - Close a potential race in kernel_read_file(), by making the file
   unwritable before calling the LSM check (vs after), from Kees Cook.

* 'next-general' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security:
  security: convert security hooks to use hlist
  exec: Set file unwritable before LSM check
  usb, signal, security: only pass the cred, not the secid, to kill_pid_info_as_cred and security_task_kill
