[PATCH v15 14/26] ima: Implement hierarchical processing of file accesses

[Stefan Berger]

Implement hierarchical processing of file accesses in IMA namespaces by
walking the list of user namespaces towards the root. This way file
accesses can be audited in an IMA namespace and also be evaluated against
the IMA policies of parent IMA namespaces.

Pass the user_namespace into process_measurement since we will be walking
the hierarchy of user_namespaces towards the init_user_ns and we can easily
derive the ima_namespace from the user_namespace.

__process_measurement() returns either 0 or -EACCES. For hierarchical
processing remember the -EACCES returned by this function but continue
to the parent user namespace. At the end either return 0 or -EACCES
if an error occurred in one of the IMA namespaces.

Currently the ima_ns pointer of the user_namespace is always NULL except
at the init_user_ns, so test ima_ns for NULL pointer and skip the call to
__process_measurement() if it is NULL. Once IMA namespacing is fully
enabled, the pointer may still be NULL due to late initialization of the
IMA namespace.

v10:
  - Fixed compilation issue

v9:
  - Switch callers to pass user_namespace rather than ima_namespace with
    potential NULL pointer
  - Add default case to switch statement and warn if this happens
  - Implement ima_ns_from_user_ns() in this patch now
