Subject: [PATCH] ima: make a copy of template_fmt in
 template_desc_init_fields()
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

This patch makes a copy of the 'template_fmt' function argument so that
the latter will not be modified by strsep(), which does the splitting by
replacing the given separator with '\0'.
