    Subject[PATCH v3 14/15] selinux: allow setxattr on rootfs so initramfs code can set them
    Date
    From: Victor Kamensky <kamensky@cisco.com>

    initramfs code supporting extended cpio format have ability to
    fill extended attributes from cpio archive, but if SELinux enabled
    and security server is not initialized yet, selinux callback would
    refuse setxattr made by initramfs code.

    Solution enable SBLABEL_MNT on rootfs even if secrurity server is
    not initialized yet.
