Subject: [PATCH 2/3] Don't unnecessarily try to change a file context

As pointed out by Tim Waugh here:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/507555

We shouldn't bother trying to set the context of a file if it already
matches what we want.

(Fixed to use STREQ() and not use tabs, as pointed out by danpb)
