Subject: [GIT PULL] SELinux fixes for v5.12 (#1)

Hi Linus,

Three SELinux patches to address problems in v5.12, and earlier, kernels:

* Fix a problem where a local variable is used outside its associated
function.  Thankfully this can only be triggered by reloading the
SELinux policy, which is a restricted operation for other obvious
reasons.

* Fix some incorrect, and inconsistent, audit and printk messages when
loading the SELinux policy.

All three patches are relatively minor and have been through our
testing with no failures, please merge them for the next v5.12-rcX
release.

Thanks.
