[PATCH 4/4] AppArmor: Fix locking from removal of profile namespace

From: John Johansen
Date: Fri Aug 27 2010 - 21:34:02 EST


The locking for profile namespace removal is wrong, when removing a
profile namespace, it needs to be removed from its parent's list.
Lock the parent of namespace list instead of the namespace being removed.
