I found an issue in this patch.

Moving ima_reset_appraise_flags() to the post hook causes this
function to be executed also when __vfs_setxattr_noperm() is
called.

The problem is that at the end of a write IMA calls
ima_collect_measurement() to recalculate the file digest and
update security.ima. ima_collect_measurement() sets
IMA_COLLECTED.

However, after that __vfs_setxattr_noperm() causes
IMA_COLLECTED to be reset, and to unnecessarily recalculate
the file digest. This wouldn't happen if ima_reset_appraise_flags()
is in the pre hook.

I solved by replacing:
	iint->flags &= ~IMA_DONE_MASK;
with:
	iint->flags &= ~(IMA_DONE_MASK & ~IMA_COLLECTED);

just when the IMA_CHANGE_XATTR bit is set. It should
not be a problem since setting an xattr does not influence
the file content.

Mimi, what do you think?

Thanks
