selinux: fix SEGV during switch-root if SELinux policy loaded
If you've got SELinux policy loaded, label_hnd is your labeling handle. When systemd is shutting down, we free that handle via mac_selinux_finish(). But: switch_root() calls mkdir_p_label(), which tries to look up a label using that freed handle, and so we get a bunch of garbage and eventually SEGV in libselinux. (This doesn't happen in the switch-root from initramfs to real root because there's no SELinux policy loaded in initramfs, so label_hnd is NULL and we never attempt any lookups.) So: make sure that mac_selinux_finish() actually sets label_hnd to NULL, so nobody tries to use it after it becomes invalid. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1185604 Signed-off-by: Anthony G.
