Thank you for reporting.

selinux_parse_opts_str() and smack_parse_opts_str() forgot to set
opts->mnt_opts to NULL after kfree() at

if (!opts->mnt_opts_flags) {
	kfree(opts->mnt_opts);
	goto out_err;
}

and caused double free at

if (opts->mnt_opts)
	for (i = 0; i < opts->num_mnt_opts; i++)
		kfree(opts->mnt_opts[i]);

in security_free_mnt_opts().
