Subject: [PATCH] security: ima: make use of kmemdup
Message-ID: <20190913163506.GA30916@SD>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Disposition: inline
User-Agent: Mutt/1.10.1 (2018-07-13)
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

Replace call to kmalloc followed by memcpy with a direct call
to kmemdup to achieve same functionality.
