+kpatch: do not rm selinux rpm owned directory
+
+As part of the kpatch rpm package installation, the /var/lib/kpatch directory
+gets created and is set to be selinux owned by the kpatch rpm package.
+
+There is a problem where uninstalling the last kpatch-patch will also remove
+this directory. When another kpatch-patch installation occurs, the
+/var/lib/kpatch get recreated but withtout the selinux context which triggers a
+policy error.
+
+Since /var/lib/kpatch is now created by the rpm spec file, do not remove it
+from the uinstall target of the kpatch script. This insures selinux context
+consistency.
+
+RHEL-only.
