kernel commit e9c38f9fc2cc ("Documentation,selinux: deprecate setting
checkreqprot to 1") from v5.10-rc1 deprecated checkreqprot value 1
(emit warning in dmesg). Code is used only in ima_selinux.sh
which requires 5.12. Touching /sys/fs/selinux/checkreqprot is required
to trigger the measurement via selinux_ima_measure_state().
Using the same value (0 by default) works on recent 6.14, it should be
safe changing to use the same value. This way misleading warning is
avoided and hopefully kept working in the future.
Also, this way it does not modify SUT setting (don't influence other
tests), which is always better.
Fixes: 36c695e497 ("tst_security.sh: Add helper tst_update_selinux_state()")

@SELinux developers: FYI tst_security.sh is used in LTP test in
ima_selinux.sh [1] test.
Kind regards,
Petr
