apparmor: don't try to replace stale label in ptrace access check
[ Upstream commit 1f8266ff58840d698a1e96d2274189de1bdf7969 ] As a comment above begin_current_label_crit_section() explains, begin_current_label_crit_section() must run in sleepable context because when label_is_stale() is true, aa_replace_current_label() runs, which uses prepare_creds(), which can sleep. Until now, the ptrace access check (which runs with a task lock held) violated this rule. Also add a might_sleep() assertion to begin_current_label_crit_section(), because asserts are less likely to be ignored than comments.
