[PATCH v3 1/7] security: rename security_kernel_read_file() hook

In order for LSMs and IMA-appraisal to differentiate between the original
and new syscalls (eg. kexec, kernel modules, firmware), both the original
and new syscalls must call an LSM hook.

Commit 2e72d51b4ac3 ("security: introduce kernel_module_from_file hook")
introduced calling security_kernel_module_from_file() in both the original
and new syscalls.  Commit a1db74209483 ("module: replace
copy_module_from_fd with kernel version") replaced these LSM calls with
security_kernel_read_file().

Commit e40ba6d56b41 ("firmware: replace call to fw_read_file_contents()
with kernel version") and commit b804defe4297  ("kexec: replace call to
copy_file_from_fd() with kernel version") replaced their own version of
reading a file from the kernel with the generic
kernel_read_file_from_path/fd() versions, which call the pre and post
security_kernel_read_file LSM hooks.

Missing are LSM calls in the original kexec syscall and firmware sysfs
fallback method.  Instead of defining a new LSM hook or wrapper for
security_kernel_read_file(), this patch renames the original
security_kernel_read_file() hook to security_kernel_read_data(), and
updates LSM usage of the hook (eg. loadpin, init_module, IMA).

Changelog v3:
- Rename security_kernel_read_file to security_kernel_read_data().

Changelog v2:
- Define a generic wrapper named security_kernel_read_blob() for
security_kernel_read_file().

Changelog v1:
- Define and call security_kexec_load(), a wrapper for
security_kernel_read_file().
