EVM: Allow runtime modification of the set of verified xattrs

Sites may wish to provide additional metadata alongside files in order to make more fine-grained security decisions[1]. The security of this is enhanced if this metadata is protected, something that EVM makes possible. However, the kernel cannot know about the set of extended attributes that local admins may wish to protect, and hardcoding this policy in the kernel makes it difficult to change over time and less convenient for distributions to enable. This patch adds a new /sys/kernel/security/integrity/evm/evm_xattrs node, which can be read to obtain the current set of EVM-protected extended attributes or written to in order to add new entries. Extending this list will not change the validity of any existing signatures provided that the file in question does not have any of the additional extended attributes - missing xattrs are skipped when calculating the EVM hash. [1] For instance, a package manager could install information about the package uploader in an additional extended attribute. Local LSM policy could then be associated with that extended attribute in order to restrict the privileges available to packages from less trusted uploaders.

64+Description:
65+ Shows the set of extended attributes used to calculate or
66+ validate the EVM signature, and allows additional attributes
67+ to be added at runtime. Any signatures generated after
68+ additional attributes are added (and on files posessing those
69+ additional attributes) will only be valid if the same
70+ additional attributes are configured on system boot. Writing
71+ a single period (.) will lock the xattr list from any further
72+ modification.
