[PATCH 5.8 240/464] ima: Free the entire rule when deleting a list of rules

[ Upstream commit 465aee77aae857b5fcde56ee192b33dc369fba04 ]

Create a function, ima_free_rule(), to free all memory associated with
an ima_rule_entry. Use the new function to fix memory leaks of allocated
ima_rule_entry members, such as .fsname and .keyrings, when deleting a
list of rules.

Make the existing ima_lsm_free_rule() function specific to the LSM
audit rule array of an ima_rule_entry and require that callers make an
additional call to kfree to free the ima_rule_entry itself.

This fixes a memory leak seen when loading by a valid rule that contains
an additional piece of allocated memory, such as an fsname, followed by
an invalid rule that triggers a policy load failure:

# echo -e "dont_measure fsname=securityfs\nbad syntax" > \
/sys/kernel/security/ima/policy
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
# echo scan > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
unreferenced object 0xffff9bab67ca12c0 (size 16):
comm "bash", pid 684, jiffies 4295212803 (age 252.344s)
hex dump (first 16 bytes):
