Do we want to define LSM_CONFIG_{SELF,SYSTEM}_POLICY_MAX_BUFFER_SIZE as Kconfig?
If security_lsm_config_{self,system}_policy() are meant to be used by multiple
LSM modules, the upper limit each LSM module wants to impose would vary. Also,
1073741824 is larger than KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE; kmalloc()-based memory copying
functions will hit WARN_ON_ONCE_GFP() at __alloc_frozen_pages_noprof().
Since some of LSM modules might use vmalloc()-based memory copying functions
from
security_lsm_config_{self,system}_policy(), the upper limit should be imposed by
individual LSM module which provides security_lsm_config_{self,system}_policy().
