[PATCH -next] evm: Use __vfs_setxattr() to update security.evm
From: Xiu Jianfeng
Date: Tue Dec 27 2022 - 22:06:30 EST
Currently it uses __vfs_setxattr_noperm() to update "security.evm",
however there are two lsm hooks(inode_post_setxattr and inode_setsecurity)
being called inside this function, which don't make any sense for xattr
"security.evm", because the handlers of these two hooks, such as selinux
and smack, only care about their own xattr.
On the other hand, there is a literally rather than actually cyclical
callchain as follows:
security_inode_post_setxattr
->evm_inode_post_setxattr
->evm_update_evmxattr
->__vfs_setxattr_noperm
->security_inode_post_setxattr
So use __vfs_setxattr() to update "security.evm".
