Based on the reproducer and the stack trace, I'm guessing the system
is attempting to load a kernel module for a a defined, but unloaded,
protocol.  Looking quickly at the SELinux bprm and sidtab code,
nothing obvious is jumping out at me.  Considering the number of false
positives I've been seeing from syzbot lately, I'm assuming this is
more of the same.
