selinux: convert type_val_to_struct to flex_array
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
In rawhide type_val_to_struct will allocate 26848 bytes, an order 3
allocations.  While this hasn't been seen to fail it isn't outside the
realm of possibiliy on systems with severe memory fragmentation.  Convert
to flex_array so no allocation will ever be bigger than PAGE_SIZE.
