sigh, yep.  You know the depressing thing is I patched that once and seem
to have dropped the fix when I fiddled with the code, again.  :(

that should never happen anymore, see last comment

err, no.  It is only for if the name is specified and the profile couldn't be
found in 
342          ns = aa_get_namespace(__aa_find_namespace(&root->sub_ns, name));

The other case of ns = aa_get_namespace(root); is guaranteed to succeed.
I should move the whole if (!ns) block under if (name)

yes.  The rename field is only used at this one point and the rename profile,
if found is used.  However if the rename fails the name of what was to be renamed isn't currently audited and it really should be.

So this should be moved and used as part of auditing.

Hrmm, I had missed that.  It exists after a fashion as front for strim but
I missed that on my .33 build

agreed, will do

No, it shouldn't anymore.  That is one of the cleanups this round,
I got rid of the use of NULL to represent the unconfined profile.
Previously you would get a mix of "unfilter profiles" where the
unconfined profile was used and post filtered where NULL was used
to represent unconfined.  This was because NULL used to be used
to represent unconfined everywhere but with profile namespaces
we need to carry which unconfined profile it is.  Getting rid of
the mixed use allowed for several cleanups and made the code
easier to read too.

However I do notice that I missed cleaning up the comment for
aa_current_profile.  I will make another pass at all the comments
and see if I missed anything else.

I will also up the policy/context comments to note that the
context should not ever have a NULL value for profile.  It should
either be pointing to a confining profile or to the unconfined
profile for the namespace.

As always, thanks for the review Tetsuo
