When using AppArmor profiles inside an unprivileged container, the link operation observes an unshifted ouid. (tested with LXD and Incus)
For example, root inside container and uid 1000000 outside, with `owner /root/link l,` profile entry for ln: /root$ touch chain && ln chain link ==> dmesg apparmor="DENIED" operation="link" class="file" namespace="root//lxd-feet_<var-snap-lxd-common-lxd>" profile="linkit" name="/root/link" pid=1655 comm="ln" requested_mask="l" denied_mask="l" fsuid=1000000 ouid=0 [<== should be 1000000] target="/root/chain" Fix by mapping inode uid of old_dentry in aa_path_link() rather than using it directly, similarly to how it's mapped in __file_path_perm() later in the file.
