X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6427e6c71c8b374761b661c4f355762794c171a1;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

ima: ima_write_policy() limit locking

There is no need to hold the ima_write_mutex for so long.  We only need it
around ima_parse_add_rule().

Changelog:
- The return path now takes into account failed kmalloc() call.
