Yes, you can get back an initial SID from security_secctx_to_secid() if
the context string matches.  In what scenario would sksec->sid be set to
the result of security_secctx_to_secid() on a context string though, and
from where would that context string originate?  At most we only copy
the MLS attributes of the peer label, right?
