[PATCH 02/10] LSM: SafeSetID: fix check for setresuid(new1, new2, new3)

[Micah Morton <mortonm@chromium.org>]

From: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com>

With the old code, when a process with the (real,effective,saved) UID set
(1,1,1) calls setresuid(2,3,4), safesetid_task_fix_setuid() only checks
whether the transition 1->2 is permitted; the transitions 1->3 and 1->4 are
not checked. Fix this.

This is also a good opportunity to refactor safesetid_task_fix_setuid() to
be less verbose - having one branch per set*uid() syscall is unnecessary.

Note that this slightly changes semantics: The UID transition check for
UIDs that were not in the old cred struct is now always performed against
the policy of the RUID. I think that's more consistent anyway, since the
RUID is also the one that decides whether any policy is enforced at all.
