[PATCH v3 09/34] lsm: rename the lsm order variables for consistency

Thu Aug 14 22:50:18 UTC 2025
Rename the builtin_lsm_order variable to lsm_order_builtin,
chosen_lsm_order to lsm_order_cmdline, chosen_major_lsm to
lsm_order_legacy, ordered_lsms[] to lsm_order[], and exclusive
to lsm_exclusive.
This patch also renames the associated kernel command line parsing
functions and adds some basic function comment blocks. The parsing
function choose_major_lsm() was renamed to lsm_choose_security(),
choose_lsm_order() to lsm_choose_lsm(), and enable_debug() to
lsm_debug_enable().
