    selinux: fix overlayfs mmap() and mprotect() access checks

    The existing SELinux security model for overlayfs is to allow access if
    the current task is able to access the top level file (the "user" file)
    and the mounter's credentials are sufficient to access the lower
    level file (the "backing" file).  Unfortunately, the current code does
    not properly enforce these access controls for both mmap() and mprotect()
    operations on overlayfs filesystems.

    This patch makes use of the newly created security_mmap_backing_file()
    LSM hook to provide the missing backing file enforcement for mmap()
    operations, and leverages the backing file API and new LSM blob to
    provide the necessary information to properly enforce the mprotect()
    access controls.
