The 2.4 LSM tree is now updated with the proper IA-64 sys_security
number (thanks Greg and Richard).  I can release a patch with just this
change if it's useful.

I've also got a 2.4-dev tree that's up-to-date with 2.4.19-pre10 (plus
the latest IA-64 sys_security update).  I will release this patch today,
as it contains useful changes for those following 2.4.  The tree is
bk://lsm.bkbits.net/lsm-2.4-dev.

thanks,
-chris
