Davidlohr Bueso 23c8cec8cf ipc/msg: introduce msgctl(MSG_STAT_ANY)
There is a permission discrepancy when consulting msq ipc object
metadata between /proc/sysvipc/msg (0444) and the MSG_STAT shmctl
command.  The later does permission checks for the object vs S_IRUGO.
As such there can be cases where EACCESS is returned via syscall but the
info is displayed anyways in the procfs files.

While this might have security implications via info leaking (albeit no
writing to the msq metadata), this behavior goes way back and showing
all the objects regardless of the permissions was most likely an
overlook - so we are stuck with it.  Furthermore, modifying either the
syscall or the procfs file can cause userspace programs to break (ie
ipcs).  Some applications require getting the procfs info (without root
privileges) and can be rather slow in comparison with a syscall -- up to
500x in some reported cases for shm.

This patch introduces a new MSG_STAT_ANY command such that the msq ipc
object permissions are ignored, and only audited instead.  In addition,
I've left the lsm security hook checks in place, as if some policy can
block the call, then the user has no other choice than just parsing the
procfs file.

/*
* MSGMNI, MSGMAX and MSGMNB are default values which can be
* modified by sysctl.
*
* MSGMNI is the upper limit for the number of messages queues per
* namespace.
* It has been chosen to be as large possible without facilitating
* scenarios where userspace causes overflows when adjusting the limits via
* operations of the form retrieve current limit; add X; update limit".
*
* MSGMNB is the default size of a new message queue. Non-root tasks can
* decrease the size with msgctl(IPC_SET), root tasks
* (actually: CAP_SYS_RESOURCE) can both increase and decrease the queue
* size. The optimal value is application dependent.
* 16384 is used because it was always used (since 0.99.10)
*
* MAXMAX is the maximum size of an individual message, it's a global
* (per-namespace) limit that applies for all message queues.
* It's set to 1/2 of MSGMNB, to ensure that at least two messages fit into
* the queue. This is also an arbitrary choice (since 2.6.0).
