evm: calculate HMAC after initializing posix acl on tmpfs
Included in the EVM hmac calculation is the i_mode. Any changes to the i_mode need to be reflected in the hmac. shmem_mknod() currently calls generic_acl_init(), which modifies the i_mode, after calling security_inode_init_security(). This patch reverses the order in which they are called. Reported-by: Sven Vermeulen <sven.vermeulen@siphos.be> Signed-off-by: Mimi Zohar <zohar@us.ibm.com> Acked-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com>
