Hi,

In August I ran several free static analyzers in order to find new
issues in the userspace code. I used:

* clang's static analyzer (with scripts/run-scan-build)
* https://lgtm.com/ (I wrote a simple configuration file to analyze the
  C code, the results are available on
  https://lgtm.com/projects/g/fishilico/selinux-for-lgtm/ )
* Facebook's Infer (https://fbinfer.com/, I wrote a script to invoke it
  like clang's static analyzer)

Each analyzer gave many results, with several true bugs in them. Here
are patches that fix some of them. I will post the configuration files
and scripts I used separately.

Thanks,
Nicolas

I forgot to mention this when I commented on patches 2 and 3, but patches 1 and 
4-9 all look good to me.

I plan on merging these, my take on your patch 2, and your updated patch 3 
tomorrow, unless there are any objections.

Jim
