Subject: [PATCH v3 01/12] ima: Have the LSM free its audit rule

Ask the LSM to free its audit rule rather than directly calling kfree().
Both AppArmor and SELinux do additional work in their audit_rule_free()
hooks. Fix memory leaks by allowing the LSMs to perform necessary work.

Fixes: b16942455193 ("ima: use the lsm policy update notifier")

* v3
  - No change
* v2
  - Fixed build warning by dropping the 'return -EINVAL' from
    the stubbed out security_filter_rule_free() since it has a void
    return type
  - Added Mimi's Reviewed-by
  - Developed a follow-on patch to rename security_filter_rule_*()
    functions, to address Casey's request, but I'll submit it
    independently of this patch series since it is somewhat unrelated
