clang static analysis reports this representative problem:
label.c:1463:16: warning: Assigned value is garbage or undefined
label->hname = name;
^ ~~~~
In aa_update_label_name(), this the problem block of code
if (aa_label_acntsxprint(&name, ...) == -1)
return res;
On failure, aa_label_acntsxprint() has a more complicated return
that just -1. So check for a negative return.
It was also noted that the aa_label_acntsxprint() main comment refers
to a nonexistent parameter, so clean up the comment.
Fixes: f1bd904175e8 ("apparmor: add the base fns() for domain labels")

Right, so if aa_label_acntsxprint() fails, it won't assign to its
first param. In the caller, this means assigning uninitialized memory
(UB) when aa_label_acntsxprint() returns -ENOMEM for example. Thanks
for the patch.

sorry it seems I missed replying to this. This patch has been pulled into apparmor-next
