Public bug reported:

AppArmor is creating unnecessary log spam

Files with a dentry pointing aa_null.dentry where already rejected as           
part of file_inheritance. Unfortunately the check in                            
common_file_perm() is insufficient to cover all cases causing                   
unnecessary audit messages without the original files context.                  
                                                                                
Eg.
[ 442.886474] audit: type=1400 audit(1704822661.616:329): apparmor="DENIED" 
operation="file_inherit" class="file" 
namespace="root//lxd-juju-98527a-0_<var-snap-lxd-common-lxd>" 
profile="snap.lxd.activate" name="/apparmor/.null" pid=9525 comm="snap-exec"
