When selinux_restorecon() is used to relabel symlinks, it performs the
following syscalls (as seen by running strace on restorecond):
lstat("/root/symlink", {st_mode=S_IFLNK|0777, st_size=6, ...}) = 0
statfs("/root/symlink", 0x7ffd6bb4d090) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
lstat("/root/symlink", {st_mode=S_IFLNK|0777, st_size=6, ...}) = 0
lgetxattr("/root/symlink", "security.selinux", "sysadm_u:object_r:user_home_t", 255) = 30
The second one triggers a SELinux check for lnk_file:read, as statfs()
dereferences symbolic links. This call to statfs() is only used to find
out whether "restoreconlast" xattr can be ignored, which is always the
case for non-directory files (the first syscall, lstat(), is actually
used to perform this check).
Skip the call to statfs() when setrestoreconlast is already false.
This silences an AVC denial that would otherwise be reported to
audit.log (cf. https://github.com/SELinuxProject/refpolicy/pull/22).
