[PATCH] ima: Make a copy of sig and digest in asymmetric_verify()

From: Roberto Sassu

From: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@xxxxxxxxxx>

Commit ac4e97abce9b8 ("scatterlist: sg_set_buf() argument must be in linear
mapping") requires that both the signature and the digest resides in the
linear mapping area.

However, more recently commit ba14a194a434c ("fork: Add generic vmalloced
stack support"), made it possible to move the stack in the vmalloc area,
which could make the requirement of the first commit not satisfied anymore.

If CONFIG_SG=y and CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y, the following BUG() is triggered:

[ 467.077359] kernel BUG at include/linux/scatterlist.h:163!
[ 467.077939] invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI

[...]

[ 467.100391] evm_inode_setattr+0x43/0x190

The failure happens only for the digest, as the pointer comes from the
stack, and not for the signature, which instead was allocated by
vfs_getxattr_alloc().

Fix this by making a copy of both in asymmetric_verify(), so that the
linear mapping requirement is always satisfied, regardless of the caller.
