This forces a policy reload + fixcon to deal with dynamically
delivered policy changing labels on device nodes.
It's implemented as a new keyword in init.

Move the responsibility for rebooting the system from the
reboot command to init. Init is in a better position to take
actions to bring the system down cleanly, including making sure
filesystems are mounted read-only.
The only UIDs which can perform an init triggered reboot are
root, system, and shell.
Modify the reboot command so that it calls into init to perform
the reboot. The reboot command no longer requires CAP_SYS_BOOT.
Remove the -n reboot option and code which supports it. Anyone needing
to do an unclean shutdown can just do a 'echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger'.
Modify adb so that it calls into init to perform a shutdown.

Adding a new location for policy files under
/data, the new location is /data/security. The
new location is used before attempting to use
any other location.
This requires a new directory to be created by
the init script and an update to the location of
the property_contexts file for property service.

Allow userspace programs to create IPPROTO_ICMP sockets.
This socket type allows an unprivileged program to safely
send ICMP_ECHO messages and receive the corresponding
ICMP_ECHOREPLY messages, without relying on raw sockets or
setuid programs.
Please see http://lwn.net/Articles/443051/ for details.
In particular, this allows us to use a version of ping
which doesn't have any capabilities
(https://android-review.googlesource.com/52072).
In addition, this allows us to safely implement an IPv4 ICMP
based version of InetAddress.isReachable()

This will help get rid of android_aid.h in the kernel.
The group of the proc entries will be used in place of the default
values picked up by the xt_qtaguid netfilter module
(AID_NET_BW_STATS, AID_NET_BW_ACCT).
This change has no effect until the matching kernel changes are submitted.

This is necessary for some HWC hals to be able to communicate with
secure side to grant protected access to hardware owned by the
hwc. This is necessary on some architectures to grant access to
secure buffers to overlay/csc hardware

When vold mounts things in /mnt/secure/staging, it expects to MS_MOVE
those mountpoints when vetting is finished. However, the kernel
doesn't allow MS_MOVE when the source is shared to child namespaces.
To work around this, create a tmpfs at /mnt/secure and mark it as
private (not shared). Verified that vold can now successfully move
from the staging area.
