Dear All,

We met one issue on the android M as below:

[  137.663890] type=1400 audit(946684934.059:69): avc: denied { module_request 
} for pid=3135 comm="dmesg" kmod="personality-8" scontext=u:r:shell:s0 
tcontext=u:r:kernel:s0 tclass=system permissive=1

I saw there was a thread to discuss this before, just wondering what would be 
the solution at least risk?
1) To revert the commit?
commit f643eb38c36eb63f612e20dea09fd43ac6a6b360
Author: Dmitriy Ivanov <[email protected]>
Date:   Tue Jun 30 15:10:51 2015 -0700

    Improve personality initialization
    
    1. Personality parameter should be unsigned int (not long)
    2. Do not reset bits outside of PER_MASK when setting
       personality value.
    3. Set personality for static executables.

2) Or we can make some fix in kernel as suggested in previous thread. If so, 
what the commit/change will be?

Thanks!
