Subject: [PATCH v3 13/15] ima: add ima_inode_setxattr and ima_inode_removexattr

Based on xattr_permission comments, the restriction to modify
'security' xattr is left up to the underlying fs or lsm. Ensure
that not just anyone can modify or remove 'security.ima'.

Changelog:
  - Replace CAP_MAC_ADMIN with CAP_SYS_ADMIN
  - static inline ima_inode_setxattr()/ima_inode_removexattr() stubs
  - ima_protect_xattr should be static
