[PATCH v2 2/2] selinux: fix variable scope issue in live sidtab conversion

[Ondrej Mosnacek <omosnace@redhat.com>]

Commit 02a52c5c8c3b ("selinux: move policy commit after updating
selinuxfs") moved the selinux_policy_commit() call out of
security_load_policy() into sel_write_load(), which caused a subtle yet
rather serious bug.

The problem is that security_load_policy() passes a reference to the
convert_params local variable to sidtab_convert(), which stores it in
the sidtab, where it may be accessed until the policy is swapped over
and RCU synchronized. Before 02a52c5c8c3b, selinux_policy_commit() was
called directly from security_load_policy(), so the convert_params
pointer remained valid all the way until the old sidtab was destroyed,
but now that's no longer the case and calls to sidtab_context_to_sid()
on the old sidtab after security_load_policy() returns may cause invalid
memory accesses.

This can be easily triggered using the stress test from commit
ee1a84fdfeed ("selinux: overhaul sidtab to fix bug and improve
performance"):
```
function rand_cat() {
	echo $(( $RANDOM % 1024 ))
}

function do_work() {
	while true; do
		echo -n "system_u:system_r:kernel_t:s0:c$(rand_cat),c$(rand_cat)" \
			>/sys/fs/selinux/context 2>/dev/null || true
	done
}

do_work >/dev/null &
do_work >/dev/null &
do_work >/dev/null &

while load_policy; do echo -n .; sleep 0.1; done

kill %1
kill %2
kill %3
```

Fix this by allocating the temporary sidtab convert structures
dynamically and passing them among the
selinux_policy_{load,cancel,commit} functions.

Note that this commit also fixes the minor issue of logging a
MAC_POLICY_LOAD audit record in case sel_make_policy_nodes() fails (in
which case the new policy isn't actually loaded).
