Typically fixes like this would be merged via the current selinux/stable-X.YY branch and sent to Linus via a PR after a few days of soaking and test runs. However, with the v5.12 release likely this weekend, only a few days away, it seems overly risky to send this to Linus now when one considers the nature of the patch and the fact that we can send it to Linus as part of the v5.13 merge window next week.

This patch adds the missing NULL termination to the "bpf" and "perf_event" object class permission lists. This missing NULL termination should really only affect the tools under scripts/selinux, with the most important being genheaders.c, although in practice this has not been an issue on any of my dev/test systems. If the problem were to manifest itself it would likely result in bogus permissions added to the end of the object class; thankfully with no access control checks using these bogus permissions and no policies defining these permissions the impact would likely be limited to some noise about undefined permissions during policy load.
