From: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@gmail.com>

commit 880bd496ec72a6dcb00cb70c430ef752ba242ae7 upstream.

In preparation to adding LSM blob to backing_file struct, factor out
helpers init_backing_file() and backing_file_free().

[PATCH 7.0 169/307] lsm: add backing_file LSM hooks

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

7.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paul Moore <paul@paul-moore.com>

commit 6af36aeb147a06dea47c49859cd6ca5659aeb987 upstream.

Stacked filesystems such as overlayfs do not currently provide the
necessary mechanisms for LSMs to properly enforce access controls on the
mmap() and mprotect() operations.  In order to resolve this gap, a LSM
security blob is being added to the backing_file struct and the following
new LSM hooks are being created:

 security_backing_file_alloc()
 security_backing_file_free()
 security_mmap_backing_file()

The first two hooks are to manage the lifecycle of the LSM security blob
in the backing_file struct, while the third provides a new mmap() access
control point for the underlying backing file.  It is also expected that
LSMs will likely want to update their security_file_mprotect() callback
to address issues with their mprotect() controls, but that does not
require a change to the security_file_mprotect() LSM hook.

There are a three other small changes to support these new LSM hooks:
* Pass the user file associated with a backing file down to
alloc_empty_backing_file() so it can be included in the
security_backing_file_alloc() hook.
* Add getter and setter functions for the backing_file struct LSM blob
as the backing_file struct remains private to fs/file_table.c.
* Constify the file struct field in the LSM common_audit_data struct to
better support LSMs that need to pass a const file struct pointer into
the common LSM audit code.

Thanks to Arnd Bergmann for identifying the missing EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()
and supplying a fixup.
