Subject: [PATCH v3 0/2] security: introduce kernel_fw_from_file hook

This adds an LSM hook to the existing firmware loading logic so that
the LSM can reason about the origin and contents of a firmware coming
from userspace.

Thanks,

-Kees

v3:
- correctly return LSM error to userspace (ming.lei)
- finalize memory map before calling LSM hook (tiwai)
v2:
- further clarify header comments (jmorris)
