In the case where the SELinux security module is not loaded in the
kernel and it's early enough in the boot process that /proc has not yet
been mounted, selinuxfs_exists() will incorrectly return 1, and
selinux_init_load_policy() will print a message like this to the
console:
Mount failed for selinuxfs on /sys/fs/selinux: No such file or directory
To fix this, mount the procfs before attempting to open
/proc/filesystems, and unmount it when done if it was initially not
mounted. This is the same thing that selinux_init_load_policy() does
when reading /proc/cmdline.

Thanks, applied.
In debian, I've a user complaining about the fact that libselinux is
mounting /proc by itself and that it might racy.
What do you think?
