Nick Kralevich 4c6b13508d support kernel writes to external SDcards
The kernel, when it creates a loop block device, starts a new
kernel thread "loop0" (drivers/block/loop.c). This kernel thread,
which performs writes on behalf of other processes, needs read/write
privileges to the sdcard. Allow it.

Steps to reproduce:
0) Get device with external, removable sdcard
1) Run: "adb install -s foo.apk"

Expected:

  APK installs successfully.

Actual:

  APK fails to install. Error message:

    Vold  E  Failed to write superblock (I/O error)
    loop0  W  type=1400 audit(0.0:3123): avc: denied { read } for path="/mnt/secure/asec/smdl1645334795.tmp.asec" dev="mmcblk1p1" ino=528 scontext=u:r:kernel:s0 tcontext=u:object_r:vfat:s0 tclass=file permissive=0
    PackageHelper  E  Failed to create secure container smdl1645334795.tmp
    DefContainer  E  Failed to create container smdl1645334795.tmp

# The initial task starts in the kernel domain (assigned via

neverallow domain kernel:process { transition dyntransition };
# The kernel domain is never entered via an exec, nor should it
# ever execute a program outside the rootfs without changing to another domain.
# If you encounter an execute_no_trans denial on the kernel domain, then
# possible causes include:
# - The program is a kernel usermodehelper. In this case, define a domain
# for the program and domain_auto_trans() to it.
# - You failed to setcon u:r:init:s0 in your init.rc and thus your init
# program was left in the kernel domain and is now trying to execute
# some other program. Fix your init.rc file.
# - You are running an exploit which switched to the init task credentials
# and is then trying to exec a shell or other program. You lose!
