[rsbac] About SCD T_swap.

[Javier J. Martínez Cabezón]

In rc_main.c you have for example that all requests made to MAP_EXEC
that doesn't be FILE get a DON'T CARE answer I'm right thinking that
if you make a MAP_EXEC call to a TARGET NONE (which should go to SCD
other) it get's not checked at all?
