[PATCH v2 2/5] modules: Refactor + kdoc elf_validity_cached_copy

Sat Nov 18 13:54:43 AEDT 2023
Functionality is almost identical, just structured for better
documentation and readability. Changes:
* Section names are checked for *all* non-SHT_NULL sections, not just
SHF_ALLOC sections. We have code that accesses section names of
non-SHF_ALLOC sections (see find_any_sec for example)
* The section name check occurs *before* strcmping on section names.
Previously, it was possible to use an out-of-bounds offset to strcmp
against ".modinfo" or ".gnu.linkonce.this_module"
* strtab is checked for NUL lead+termination and nonzero size
* The symbol table is swept to ensure offsets are inbounds of strtab
While some of these oversights would normally be worrying, all of the
potentially unverified accesses occur after signature check, and only in
response to a user who can load a kernel module.
