From bc4d82fb946e7b471eab2a80e384227c4eb15652 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: John Johansen Date: Wed, 16 Aug 2017 09:33:48 -0700 Subject: apparmor: fix incorrect type assignment when freeing proxies sparse reports poisoning the proxy->label before freeing the struct is resulting in a sparse build warning. ../security/apparmor/label.c:52:30: warning: incorrect type in assignment (different address spaces) ../security/apparmor/label.c:52:30: expected struct aa_label [noderef] *label ../security/apparmor/label.c:52:30: got struct aa_label * fix with RCU_INIT_POINTER as this is one of those cases where rcu_assign_pointer() is not needed.
