lsm: fix integer overflow in lsm_set_self_attr() syscall

security_setselfattr() has an integer overflow bug that leads to
out-of-bounds access when userspace provides bogus input:
`lctx->ctx_len + sizeof(*lctx)` is checked against `lctx->len` (and,
redundantly, also against `size`), but there are no checks on
`lctx->ctx_len`.
Therefore, userspace can provide an `lsm_ctx` with `->ctx_len` set to a
value between `-sizeof(struct lsm_ctx)` and -1, and this bogus `->ctx_len`
will then be passed to an LSM module as a buffer length, causing LSM
modules to perform out-of-bounds accesses.

The following reproducer will demonstrate this under ASAN (if AppArmor is
loaded as an LSM):

```

struct lsm_ctx {
  uint64_t id;
  uint64_t flags;
  uint64_t len;
  uint64_t ctx_len;
  char ctx[];
};

int main(void) {
  size_t size = sizeof(struct lsm_ctx);
  struct lsm_ctx *ctx = malloc(size);
  ctx->id = 104/*LSM_ID_APPARMOR*/;
  ctx->flags = 0;
  ctx->len = size;
  ctx->ctx_len = -sizeof(struct lsm_ctx);
  syscall(
    460/*__NR_lsm_set_self_attr*/,
    /*attr=*/  100/*LSM_ATTR_CURRENT*/,
    /*ctx=*/   ctx,
    /*size=*/  size,
    /*flags=*/ 0
  );
}
```
