Subject: apparmor: fix oops, validate buffer size in apparmor_setprocattr()

From: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@oracle.com>

commit 30a46a4647fd1df9cf52e43bf467f0d9265096ca upstream.

When proc_pid_attr_write() was changed to use memdup_user apparmor's
(interface violating) assumption that the setprocattr buffer was always
a single page was violated.

The size test is not strictly speaking needed as proc_pid_attr_write()
will reject anything larger, but for the sake of robustness we can keep
it in.

SMACK and SELinux look safe to me, but somebody else should probably
have a look just in case.

Based on original patch from Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@oracle.com>
modified for the case that apparmor provides null termination.
