[patch 013/198] SELinux: fix bug in Netlink message type detection

From: akpm
Date: Wed Apr 13 2005 - 00:20:48 EST



From: James Morris <jmorris@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch fixes a bug in the SELinux Netlink message type detection code,
where the wrong constant was being used in a case statement. The incorrect
value is not valid for this class of object so it would not have been
reached, and fallen through to a default handler for all Netlink messages.
