    security: don't use a negative Opt_err token index · 94c13f66
    Linus Torvalds authored
    The code uses a bitmap to check for duplicate tokens during parsing, and
    that doesn't work at all for the negative Opt_err token case.
    
    There is absolutely no reason to make Opt_err be negative, and in fact
    it only confuses things, since some of the affected functions actually
    return a positive Opt_xyz enum _or_ a regular negative error code (eg
    -EINVAL), and using -1 for Opt_err makes no sense.
    
    There are similar problems in ima_policy.c and key encryption, but they
    don't have the immediate bug wrt bitmap handing, and ima_policy.c in
    particular needs a different patch to make the enum values match the
    token array index.  Mimi is sending that separately.
