[PATCH 4.14 069/242] selinux: fix error initialization in inode_doinit_with_dentry()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Dec 28 2020 - 08:11:47 EST


From: Tianyue Ren <rentianyue@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 83370b31a915493231e5b9addc72e4bef69f8d31 ]

Mark the inode security label as invalid if we cannot find
a dentry so that we will retry later rather than marking it
initialized with the unlabeled SID.

Fixes: 9287aed2ad1f ("selinux: Convert isec->lock into a spinlock")
