When adding new protections against writing invalid data in the security.ima xattr, I erroneously expected ima_get_hash_algo() to always return a valid 'enum hash_algo', but it turns out it trusts the user-supplied digital signatures and return it without any checks. It didn't affect process_measurement() because that function (indirectly) calls into ima_alloc_atfm() that fallback silently on the default hash algorithm, but it did affect ima_inode_setxattr as that new function didn't perform a bounds check. Update ima_get_hash_algo() to always return a valid hash algorithm, defaulting on 'ima_hash_algo' when the user-supplied value inside the xattr is invalid. This patch was successfully tested by syszbot, see https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=e8bafe7b82c739eaf153.
