[PATCH ghak57 V2] selinux: format all invalid context as untrusted

From: Richard Guy Briggs
Date: Thu Jun 27 2019 - 12:48:43 EST


The userspace tools expect all fields of the same name to be logged
consistently with the same encoding. Since the invalid_context fields
contain untrusted strings in selinux_inode_setxattr()
and selinux_setprocattr(), encode all instances of this field the same
way as though they were untrusted even though
compute_sid_handle_invalid_context() and security_sid_mls_copy() are
trusted.
