Title:
  Change in kernel exec transition behavior causes regression tests to
  fail

Status in AppArmor:
  Fix Released
Status in apparmor package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in apparmor source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * The exec_stack.sh regression test fails due to a behavior change in
  4.8 kernels from this patch:

     commit 9f834ec18defc369d73ccf9e87a2790bfa05bf46
     Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
     Date:   Mon Aug 22 16:41:46 2016 -0700

         binfmt_elf: switch to new creds when switching to new mm

   * Adjusting the regression tests appropriately allows the kernel and
  security teams to use QRT's test-apparmor.py to test kernel and
  userspace AppArmor changes with confidence

  The previous command should result in no output and return value of 0
  once the regression test is properly updated.

  [Regression Potential]

   * This is an extremely low risk change since it only touches
  regression testing code that is not user-facing.

  [Other]

  * Fixed in upstream lp:apparmor tree:
