Subject: [PATCH 5.16 0202/1017] selinux: check return value of sel_make_avc_files

From: Christian Göttsche <cgzones@...glemail.com>

[ Upstream commit bcb62828e3e8c813b6613db6eb7fd9657db248fc ]

sel_make_avc_files() might fail and return a negative errno value on
memory allocation failures. Re-add the check of the return value,
dropped in 66f8e2f03c02 ("selinux: sidtab reverse lookup hash table").

Reported by clang-analyzer:

    security/selinux/selinuxfs.c:2129:2: warning: Value stored to
      'ret' is never read [deadcode.DeadStores]
            ret = sel_make_avc_files(dentry);
            ^     ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
