CVS commit: src/sys/kern

[Elad Efrat <elad%netbsd.org@localhost>]

Module Name:    src
Committed By:   elad

Modified Files:
        src/sys/kern: kern_auth.c

Log Message:
Short-circuit calls to kauth_authorize_action() for a scope withtout any
listeners to always return "allow".

The idea is that it's not entirely unlikely that some vendors, or users,
will decide to load the security model as an LKM, and that can only
happen after at least mounting local file-systems. If we would not have
this fast-path, all authorization requests would be denied.
