From: Xin Xiong <xiongx18@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 11c3627ec6b56c1525013f336f41b79a983b4d46 upstream.
The aa_pivotroot() function has a reference counting bug in a specific
path. When aa_replace_current_label() returns on success, the function
forgets to decrement the reference count of “target”, which is
increased earlier by build_pivotroot(), causing a reference leak.
Fix it by decreasing the refcount of “target” in that path.
Fixes: 2ea3ffb7782a ("apparmor: add mount mediation")
