syzbot will report user-controlled unbounded huge size memory allocation attempt. ;-)

This interface might be fine for AppArmor, but TOMOYO won't use this interface because
TOMOYO's policy is line-oriented ASCII text data where the destination is switched via
pseudo‑filesystem's filename; use of filename helps restricting which type of policy
can be manipulated by which process.


That is fine. But curious I am curious what the interface would look like to fit TOMOYO's
needs. I look at the current implementation as an opening discussion of what the syscall
should look like. I have no delusions that we are going to get something that will fit
all LSMs but without requirements, we won't be able to even attempt to hash something
better out.
