[PATCH 05/10] LSM: SafeSetID: refactor policy parsing

[Micah Morton]

From: Jann Horn <jannh at google.com>

In preparation for changing the policy parsing logic, refactor the line
parsing logic to be less verbose and move it into a separate function.

I made a minor change to Jann's original patch to use u32 instead of
s32 for the 'parsed_parent' and 'parsed_child' variables.
