Change the evm_inode_init_security() definition to align with the LSM
infrastructure. Keep the existing behavior of including in the HMAC
calculation only the first xattr provided by LSMs.

Changing the evm_inode_init_security() definition requires passing the
xattr array allocated by security_inode_init_security(), and the number of
xattrs filled by previously invoked LSMs.

Use the newly introduced lsm_find_xattr_slot() to position EVM correctly in
the xattrs array, like a regular LSM, and to increment the number of filled
slots. For now, the LSM infrastructure allocates enough xattrs slots to
store the EVM xattr, without using the reservation mechanism.

Finally, make evm_inode_init_security() return value compatible with the
inode_init_security hook conventions, i.e. return -EOPNOTSUPP if it is not
setting an xattr.

EVM is a bit tricky, because xattrs is both an input and an output. If it
was just output, EVM should have returned zero if xattrs is NULL. But,
since xattrs is also input, EVM is unable to do its calculations, so return
-EOPNOTSUPP and handle this error in security_inode_init_security().
I don't quite understand why EVM would return EOPNOTSUPP if it is
enabled but there are not xattrs to measure.  It seems like EVM should
return success/0 in the no-xattr case; there were no xattrs to
measure, so it succeeded in measuring nothing.  Am I missing
something?
From a very quick look at what other LSMs do, it seems that they return
zero even if they are not initialized.

So, it makes sense to return zero also here.
Oh, actually there was a reason to do that. If an LSM does not wish to
provide an xattr, it should return -EOPNOTSUPP.

As we are not checking this convention anymore, it is probably fine to
return zero. I already made the change, will send the new version
shortly.

Thanks
