Subject: selinux: correct locking in selinux_netlbl_socket_connect)
From: Paul Moore <pmoore@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 42d64e1add3a1ce8a787116036163b8724362145 upstream.
The SELinux/NetLabel glue code has a locking bug that affects systems
with NetLabel enabled, see the kernel error message below. This patch
corrects this problem by converting the bottom half socket lock to a
more conventional, and correct for this call-path, lock_sock() call.
