Hello,

Last week I was studying for the RHCSE certification, and I couldn't find
how
to change SELinux's status from enforcing to permissive in the man pages.
This
patch updates the relevant man pages.

- Switching emails

I emailed Daniel Walsh, the man page author, and he connected me to Petr
Lautrbach, who sent me to this mailing list (via my work email). The
maintainer, Stephen Smalley, said I should remove my company's legal blurb
at
the end of the email, and the email folks at my work (Acxiom Corp), said it
would be better to use my personal email anyway.

- Patch format

I hope the patch is formatted correctly. I tried to follow the notes on the
wiki (
https://github.com/SELinuxProject/selinux/wiki/Contributing#contributing-code
)
and I used a StackOverflow link (
https://stackoverflow.com/a/3418499/2958070 )
to generate the patchfile.

Thanks,

Benjamin Kane
