As I showed in [1] there are legitimate instances where ima_parse_rule()
is reached and ima->user_ns != current_user_ns(). I illustrated two
examples. So you should skip the current_user_ns() check in there.
You should be able to trigger a WARN() expanding and fixing-up the
pseudo-code of the second example in [1]. You should probably add a
test-case for this if you have test-suite already.
