Subject: [PATCH] apparmor: free the allocated pdb objects

policy_db objects are allocated with kzalloc() inside aa_alloc_pdb() and
are not cleared in the corresponding aa_free_pdb() function causing leak:

unreferenced object 0xffff88801f0a1400 (size 192):
  comm "apparmor_parser", pid 1247, jiffies 4295122827 (age 2306.399s)
  hex dump (first 32 bytes):

Free the pdbs inside aa_free_pdb(). While at it, rename the variable
representing an aa_policydb object to make the function more unified with
aa_pdb_free_kref() and aa_alloc_pdb().
