Audit is bad. It affects performance under all circumstances. It's also
dirty.
From LWN: "Andy submitted a patch to fix this particular problem, but he
didn't stop there. He has come to the conclusion that the audit
subsystem is beyond repair, so his patch marks the whole thing as being
broken, making it generally inaccessible. He cited a number of problems
beyond this security issue: it hurts performance even when it is not
being used, it is not (in his mind) reliable, it has problems with
various architectures, and "its approach to freeing memory is
terrifying." All told, Andy said, we're better off without it"
commit 45385237f65aeee73641f1ef737d7273905a233f upstream.
Since roles_init() adds some entries to the role hash table, we need to
destroy also its keys/values on error, otherwise we get a memory leak in
the error path.

commit a83d6ddaebe541570291205cb538e35ad4ff94f9 upstream.
In the SECURITY_FS_USE_MNTPOINT case we never want to allow relabeling
files/directories, so we should never set the SBLABEL_MNT flag. The
'special handling' in selinux_is_sblabel_mnt() is only intended for when
the behavior is set to SECURITY_FS_USE_GENFS.
While there, make the logic in selinux_is_sblabel_mnt() more explicit
and add a BUILD_BUG_ON() to make sure that introducing a new
SECURITY_FS_USE_* forces a review of the logic.
