[PATCH] ima: Allow imasig requirement to be satisfied by EVM portable signatures

[Roberto Sassu]

System administrators can require that all accessed files have a signature
by specifying appraise_type=imasig in a policy rule.

Currently, only IMA signatures satisfy this requirement. However, also EVM
portable signatures can satisfy it. Metadata, including security.ima, are
signed and cannot change.

This patch helps in the scenarios where system administrators want to
enforce this restriction but only EVM portable signatures are available.
The patch makes the following changes:

file xattr types:
security.ima: IMA_XATTR_DIGEST/IMA_XATTR_DIGEST_NG
security.evm: EVM_XATTR_PORTABLE_DIGSIG

execve(), mmap(), open() behavior (with appraise_type=imasig):
before: denied (file without IMA signature, imasig requirement not met)
after: allowed (file with EVM portable signature, imasig requirement met)

open(O_WRONLY) behavior (without appraise_type=imasig):
before: allowed (file without IMA signature, not immutable)
after: denied (file with EVM portable signature, immutable)
