There is another bug earlier in the function as well:

security/selinux/ss/policydb.c
  2537  
  2538          rc = next_entry(buf, fp, sizeof(u32));
  2539          if (rc)
  2540                  goto bad;
  2541          nel = le32_to_cpu(buf[0]);
  2542  
  2543          p->role_tr = hashtab_create(role_trans_hash, role_trans_cmp, nel);
  2544          if (!p->role_tr)
  2545                  goto bad;
                        ^^^^^^^^

  2546          for (i = 0; i < nel; i++) {
  2547                  rc = -ENOMEM;

This style of setting the error code seems very bug prone.

The Fixes tag for this one is:
Fixes: e67b2ec9f617 ("selinux: store role transitions in a hash table")

Just put both tags in the commit message.
