7.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Bryam Vargas <[email protected]>

commit 9a82dcd98b6e6e11cfd162410967951f12152528 upstream.

security_get_permissions() maps an inherited common's permissions into
an array sized by the class's own permissions.nprim, but class_read()
takes that nprim verbatim from the policy image and never checks that it
covers the common.  A class that inherits a common of N permissions while
declaring a smaller nprim is accepted, and on load the common's
permissions are written past the class-sized array -- an out-of-bounds
heap write.

Reject a class whose permission count is below its inherited common's.
Well-formed policies, where the class count already includes the
inherited permissions, are unaffected.
