SELinux was sometimes using the task "objective" credentials when
it could/should use the "subjective" credentials. This was sometimes
hidden by the fact that we were unnecessarily passing around pointers
to the current task, making it appear as if the task could be something
other than current, so eliminate all such passing. Given that
tasks may only alter their own credentials, we likely should move
the check from selinux_setprocattr() to security_setprocattr() or even
to proc_pid_attr_write() and drop the task argument to the security hook
altogether; it can only serve to confuse things.
