syzbot attempts to write a buffer with a large size to a sysfs entry
with writes handled by handle_policy_update(), triggering a warning
in kmalloc.

Check the size specified for write buffers before allocating.

v2: Make the check in handle_policy_update() to also cover
safesetid_uid_file_write(). Thanks for your feedback.

Looks okay to me.  Micah, are you planning to merge this patch, or
would you like me to take it via the LSM tree?

I'm going to tag this to come back to it in a week or so in case we
don't hear from Micah, but if you don't see any further replies Leo,
feel free to send a gentle nudge ;)
FYI: I sent

https://lkml.kernel.org/r/014cd694-cc27-4a07-a34a-2ae95d744515@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp

which makes this patch redundant if my patch is accepted.
