As said by Linus:

  A symmetric naming is only helpful if it implies symmetries in use.
  Otherwise it's actively misleading.

  In "kzalloc()", the z is meaningful and an important part of what the
  caller wants.

  In "kzfree()", the z is actively detrimental, because maybe in the
  future we really _might_ want to use that "memfill(0xdeadbeef)" or
  something. The "zero" part of the interface isn't even _relevant_.

The main reason that kzfree() exists is to clear sensitive information
that should not be leaked to other future users of the same memory
objects.

Rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive() to follow the example of the recently
added kvfree_sensitive() and make the intention of the API more explicit.
In addition, memzero_explicit() is used to clear the memory to make sure
that it won't get optimized away by the compiler.

The renaming is done by using the command sequence:

  git grep -w --name-only kzfree |\
  xargs sed -i 's/kzfree/kfree_sensitive/'

followed by some editing of the kfree_sensitive() kerneldoc and adding
a kzfree backward compatibility macro in slab.h.

<content type='text'>
Add KUnit tests to test AppArmor unpacking of userspace policies.
AppArmor uses a serialized binary format for loading policies. To find
policy format documentation see
Documentation/admin-guide/LSM/apparmor.rst.

In order to write the tests against the policy unpacking code, some
static functions needed to be exposed for testing purposes. One of the
goals of this patch is to establish a pattern for which testing these
kinds of functions should be done in the future.

<title>apparmor: reset pos on failure to unpack for various functions</title>

Each function that manipulates the aa_ext struct should reset it's "pos"
member on failure. This ensures that, on failure, no changes are made to
the state of the aa_ext struct.

There are paths were elements are optional and the error path is
used to indicate the optional element is not present. This means
instead of just aborting on error the unpack stream can become
unsynchronized on optional elements, if using one of the affected
functions.

A packed AppArmor policy contains null-terminated tag strings that are read
by unpack_nameX(). However, unpack_nameX() uses string functions on them
without ensuring that they are actually null-terminated, potentially
leading to out-of-bounds accesses.

Make sure that the tag string is null-terminated before passing it to
strcmp().

<content type='text'>
When blob compression is turned on, if the policy namespace is forced
onto a policy load, the policy load will fail as the namespace name
being referenced is inside the compressed policy blob, resulting in
invalid or names that are too long. So duplicate the name before the
blob is compressed.
