[RFC][PATCH v2 2/9] ima: preserve flags in ima_inode_post_setattr() if file must be appraised

[Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Before commit d79d72e02485 ("ima: per hook cache integrity appraisal
status"), ima_inode_post_setattr() clears the iint flags only if the file
does not match policy rules after attributes changed. After the commit
above, it clears the flags in any case. This patch restores the original
behavior.
