Subject: [PATCH 4.8 16/37] apparmor: fix change_hat not finding hat after policy replacement

4.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: John Johansen <john.johansen@...onical.com>

commit 3d40658c977769ce2138f286cf131537bf68bdfe upstream.

After a policy replacement, the task cred may be out of date and need
to be updated. However change_hat is using the stale profiles from
the out of date cred resulting in either: a stale profile being applied
or, incorrect failure when searching for a hat profile as it has been
migrated to the new parent profile.

Fixes: 01e2b670aa898a39259bc85c78e3d74820f4d3b6 (failure to find hat)
Fixes: 898127c34ec03291c86f4ff3856d79e9e18952bc (stale policy being applied)
