[ Upstream commit b97df7c098c531010e445da88d02b7bf7bf59ef6 ]

security_sid_to_context() expects a pointer to an u32 as the address
where to store the length of the computed context.

Reported by sparse:

security/selinux/xfrm.c:359:39: warning: incorrect type in arg 4
(different signedness)
security/selinux/xfrm.c:359:39: expected unsigned int
[usertype] *scontext_len
security/selinux/xfrm.c:359:39: got int *
