[PATCH 08/12] ima: Shallow copy the args_p member of ima_rule_entry.lsm elements

From: Tyler Hicks
Date: Mon Jun 22 2020 - 20:34:49 EST


The args_p member is a simple string that is allocated by
ima_rule_init(). Shallow copy it like other non-LSM references in
ima_rule_entry structs.

There are no longer any necessary error path cleanups to do in
ima_lsm_copy_rule() so reference ownership from entry to nentry becomes
easier.
