[PATCH v2] evm: Correct inode_init_security hooks behaviors

From: Nicolas Bouchinet <nicolas.bouchinet at ssi.gouv.fr>

Fixes a NULL pointer dereference occurring in the
`evm_protected_xattr_common` function of the EVM LSM. The bug is
triggered if a `inode_init_security` hook returns 0 without initializing
the given `struct xattr` fields (which is the case of BPF) and if no
other LSM overrides thoses fields after. This also leads to memory
leaks.

Adds a `call_int_hook_xattr` macro that fetches and feed the
`new_xattrs` array with every called hook xattr values.

Adds a `evm_init_hmacs` function which init the EVM hmac using every
entry of the array contrary to `evm_init_hmac`.

Fixes the `evm_inode_init_security` function to use `evm_init_hmacs`.

The `MAX_LSM_EVM_XATTR` value has been raised to 5 which gives room for
SMACK, SELinux, Apparmor, BPF and IMA/EVM security attributes.

Changes the default return value of the `inode_init_security` hook
definition to `-EOPNOTSUPP`.

Changes the hook documentation to match the behavior of the LSMs using
it (only xattr->value is initialised with kmalloc and thus is the only
one that should be kfreed by the caller).

Changes since v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-integrity/Y1FTSIo+1x+4X0LS@archlinux/
* The `call_int_hook_xattr` macro has been inlined into the
  `security_inode_init_security` hook (as suggested by Paul Moor,
  Mickaël Salaün and Casey Schaufler).
* The MAX_LSM_EVM_XATTR value is processed based on compiled LSMs (as
  proposed by Casey Schaufler).
* Various typos and cosmetic changes has been fixed (as suggested by
  Mickaël Salaün)
* A MAX_LSM_EVM_XATTR test has been wrapped in a WAN_ON_ONCE macro (as
  suggested by Mickaël Salaün).
