From: Christian Göttsche <cgzones@googlemail.com>

Use const parameters where applicable to signal immutability.

Rename the passed iterator avrule from avrule to narule, to make clear
its the neverallow rule to assert against, not the allow rule to check.

Drop needless branch in check_assertions(), since in the case avrules is
NULL the for loop won't execute and errors will stay at 0, so 0 will be
returned regardless. Also there is no call to free() as mentioned in the
outdated comment.

v3:
  - use C99 bool where applicable
  - minor additions
v2:
  add patch
