Yes this is redundant, I will remove it.

Actually this is needed. Policy updates can be applied to any deployed
policy, which may be saved in two places: the securityfs file node
and the ipe_active_policy pointer. To update a policy, this function first
checks if the policy saved in the securityfs file node is currently active.
If so, it updates the ipe_active_policy pointer to point to the new policy,
and finally updates the policy pointer in the securityfs to the new policy.
