From: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@xxxxxxxxxx> Commit 98de59bfe4b2f ("take calculation of final prot in security_mmap_file() into a helper") moved the code to update prot with the actual protection flags to be granted to the requestor by the kernel to a helper called mmap_prot(). However, the patch didn't update the argument passed to ima_file_mmap(), making it receive the requested prot instead of the final computed prot. A possible consequence is that files mmapped as executable might not be measured/appraised if PROT_EXEC is not requested but subsequently added in the final prot. Replace prot with mmap_prot(prot) as the second argument of ima_file_mmap() to restore the original behavior.
