Now that the SRCU Kconfig option is unconditionally selected, there is
no longer any point in selecting it.  Therefore, remove the "select SRCU"
Kconfig statements.

<title>tomoyo: Omit use of bin2c</title>

<id>80f8be7af03ffe90dc4df998b16bfa212afbdde9</id>
<content type='text'>
bin2c was, as its name implies, introduced to convert a binary file to
C code.

However, I did not see any good reason ever for using this tool because
using the .incbin directive is much faster, and often results in simpler
code.

Most of the uses of bin2c have been killed, for example:

  - 13610aa908dc ("kernel/configs: use .incbin directive to embed config_data.gz")
  - 4c0f032d4963 ("s390/purgatory: Omit use of bin2c")

security/tomoyo/Makefile has even less reason for using bin2c because
the policy files are text data. So, sed is enough for converting them
to C string literals, and what is nicer, generates human-readable
builtin-policy.h.

This is the last user of bin2c. After this commit lands, bin2c will be
removed.

A bad bug in clang's implementation of -fzero-call-used-regs can result
in NULL pointer dereferences (see the links above the check for more
information). Restrict CONFIG_CC_HAS_ZERO_CALL_USED_REGS to either a
supported GCC version or a clang newer than 15.0.6, which will catch
both a theoretical 15.0.7 and the upcoming 16.0.0, which will both have
the bug fixed.

LoadPin only enforces the read-only origin of kernel file reads. Whether
or not it was a partial read isn't important. Remove the overly
conservative checks so that things like partial firmware reads will
succeed (i.e. reading a firmware header).
