Hi,

Here's my tree for adding partial read support in kernel_read_file(), which fixes a number of issues along the way. It's got Scott's firmware and IMA patches ported and everything tests cleanly for me (even with CONFIG_IMA_APPRAISE=y).

I think the intention is for this to go via Greg's tree since Scott's driver code will depend on it?

I've applied the first 3 now, as I think I need some acks/reviewed-by from the subsystem owners of the other patches before I can take them.

thanks,

greg k-h
