Subject: [PATCH 5.15 136/530] ima: fix blocking of security.ima xattrs of unsupported algorithms

From: Mimi Zohar <zohar@...ux.ibm.com>

[ Upstream commit 5926586f291b53cb8a0c9631fc19489be1186e2d ]

Limit validating the hash algorithm to just security.ima xattr, not
the security.evm xattr or any of the protected EVM security xattrs,
nor posix acls.

Fixes: 50f742dd9147 ("IMA: block writes of the security.ima xattr with unsupported algorithms")
