[patch 0/7 v2] selinux: return proper error codes instead of -1

[Dan Carpenter <error27@gmail.com>]

I've respun these patches based on Eric's feedback.  It was mostly to
use "rc" consistently instead of "ret" and also to use "if (rc)" instead
of "if (rc < 0)".

One thing which I didn't really change was in [patch 3/7].

The problem is those functions in cond_insertf() don't return error 
codes, they return pointers and NULL.  I could put an:

	rc = -EINVAL;

in front of each goto but that seems awkward.  I did change one of the
cond_insertf() returns to -ENOMEM where my first patch left it as
-EINVAL, but otherwise I basically left that function the same.

Everything else should be OK though.
