Commit e3489f8974 ("selinux: kill selinux_sb_get_mnt_opts()")
introduced a NULL check on the context after a successful call to
security_sid_to_context(). This is on the one hand redundant after
checking for success and on the other hand insufficient on an actual
NULL pointer, since the context is passed to seq_escape() leading to a
call of strlen() on it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
