Hi Adrian,

Thanks for finding this mistake, however, I'd rather see it fixed by
removing the netlbl_secattr_destroy() call in
security_netlbl_sid_to_secattr() as it really shouldn't be there
anymore. We moved the matching _init() call into
selinux_netlbl_sock_setsid() and I'd like to see the _init() and
_destroy() calls done in the same function. I can push a revised patch
for this if you would prefer, otherwise I'll be happy to ack an updated
version ...
