Pull SELinux updates from Paul Moore:
 "We've got twenty SELinux patches for the v5.7 merge window, the
  highlights are below:

   - Deprecate setting /sys/fs/selinux/checkreqprot to 1.

     This flag was originally created to deal with legacy userspace and
     the READ_IMPLIES_EXEC personality flag. We changed the default from
     1 to 0 back in Linux v4.4 and now we are taking the next step of
     deprecating it, at some point in the future we will take the final
     step of rejecting 1.

   - Allow kernfs symlinks to inherit the SELinux label of the parent
     directory. In order to preserve backwards compatibility this is
     protected by the genfs_seclabel_symlinks SELinux policy capability.

   - Optimize how we store filename transitions in the kernel, resulting
     in some significant improvements to policy load times.

   - Do a better job calculating our internal hash table sizes which
     resulted in additional policy load improvements and likely general
     SELinux performance improvements as well.

   - Remove the unused initial SIDs (labels) and improve how we handle
     initial SIDs.

   - Enable per-file labeling for the bpf filesystem.

   - Ensure that we properly label NFS v4.2 filesystems to avoid a
     temporary unlabeled condition.

   - Add some missing XFS quota command types to the SELinux quota
     access controls.

   - Fix a problem where we were not updating the seq_file position
     index correctly in selinuxfs.

   - We consolidate some duplicated code into helper functions.

   - A number of list to array conversions.

   - Update Stephen Smalley's email address in MAINTAINERS"
