[PATCH 2/6] IMA: drop the inode opencount since it isn't needed foroperation

From: Eric Paris
Date: Tue Oct 19 2010 - 19:00:54 EST


The opencount was used to help depugging to make sure that everything which
created a struct file also correctly made the IMA calls. Since we moved
all of that into the VFS this isn't as necessary. We should be able to get
the same amount of debugging out of just the reader and write count.
