Move management of the superblock->sb_security blob out
of the individual security modules and into the security
infrastructure. Instead of allocating the blobs from within
the modules the modules tell the infrastructure how much
space is required, and the space is allocated there.

Changes since v17:
* Rebase the original LSM stacking patch from v5.3 to v5.7: I fixed some
   diff conflicts caused by code moves and function renames in
   selinux/include/objsec.h and selinux/hooks.c .  I checked that it
   builds but I didn't test the changes for SELinux nor SMACK.
You shouldn't retain Signed-off-by and Reviewed-by lines from an earlier
patch if you made non-trivial changes to it (even more so if you didn't
test them).
I think I made trivial changes according to the original patch. But
without reply from other people with Signed-off-by or Reviewed-by
(Casey, Kees, John), I'll remove them. I guess you don't want your
Reviewed-by to be kept, so I'll remove it, except if you want to review
this patch (or the modified part).
At the very least your Reviewed-by line is wrong - yours should be
Signed-off-by because the patch went through you and you modified it.
I'll try to take a look as time permits but FYI you should this
address (already updated in MAINTAINERS) going forward.
I finally got around to reviewing your updated patch.  You can drop
the old line and add:
