[PATCH v3 04/11] ima: Move ima_reset_appraise_flags() call to post hooks

From: Roberto Sassu
Date: Wed Nov 11 2020 - 04:24:17 EST


ima_inode_setxattr() and ima_inode_removexattr() hooks are called before an
operation is performed. Thus, ima_reset_appraise_flags() should not be
called there, as flags might be unnecessarily reset if the operation is
denied.

This patch introduces the post hooks ima_inode_post_setxattr() and
ima_inode_post_removexattr(), removes ima_inode_removexattr() and adds the
call to ima_reset_appraise_flags() in the new functions.
