Subject: [PATCH] selinux: always use *_raw API from libselinux
When mcstransd* is running non-raw functions will return translated SELinux
context. Problem is that libselinux will cache this information and in the
future it will return same context even though mcstransd maybe not running at
that time. If you then check with such context against SELinux policy then
selinux_check_access may fail depending on whether mcstransd is running or not.
To workaround this problem/bug in libselinux, we should always get raw context
instead. Most users will not notice because they don't use MCS/MLS policy
anyway. Others will most likely not notice as well because result of access
check is logged only in debug mode.
* Service which translates labels to human readable form
Resolves: #1256888
