linux-next: manual merge of the security tree with the vfs tree

From: Stephen Rothwell

Hi James,

Today's linux-next merge of the security tree got a conflict in:

security/integrity/ima/ima_fs.c

between commit:

3bc8f29b149e ("new helper: memdup_user_nul()")

from the vfs tree and commit:

38d859f991f3 ("IMA: policy can now be updated multiple times")

from the security tree.

I fixed it up (hopefully, see below) and can carry the fix as necessary
(no action is required).
