    Remove platform_app from neverallow execute from /data · c55cf17a
    Nick Kralevich authored
    Apparently some manufacturers sign APKs with the platform key
    which use renderscript. Renderscript works by compiling the
    .so file, and placing it in the app's home directory, where the
    app loads the content.
    
    Drop platform_app from the neverallow restriction to allow partners
    to add rules allowing /data execute for this class of apps.
    
    We should revisit this in the future after we have a better
    solution for apps which use renderscript.
