selinux: normalize input to /sys/fs/selinux/enforce
At present, one can write any signed integer value to /sys/fs/selinux/enforce and it will be stored, e.g. echo -1 > /sys/fs/selinux/enforce or echo 2 > /sys/fs/selinux/enforce. This makes no real difference to the kernel, since it only ever cares if it is zero or non-zero, but some userspace code compares it with 1 to decide if SELinux is enforcing, and this could confuse it. Only a process that is already root and is allowed the setenforce permission in SELinux policy can write to /sys/fs/selinux/enforce, so this is not considered to be a security issue, but it should be fixed.
