26b1604e1a landlock: Reduce the maximum number of layers to 16
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1981864

commit 75c542d6c6 upstream.

The maximum number of nested Landlock domains is currently 64.  Because
of the following fix and to help reduce the stack size, let's reduce it
to 16.  This seems large enough for a lot of use cases (e.g. sandboxed
init service, spawning a sandboxed SSH service, in nested sandboxed
containers).  Reducing the number of nested domains may also help to
discover misuse of Landlock (e.g. creating a domain per rule).

Add and use a dedicated layer_mask_t typedef to fit with the number of
layers.  This might be useful when changing it and to keep it consistent
with the maximum number of layers.

69fe554015 docs: userspace-api: landlock.rst: avoid using ReST :doc:foo markup
The :doc:`foo` tag is auto-generated via automarkup.py.
So, use the filename at the sources, instead of :doc:`foo`.

5526b45083 landlock: Add user and kernel documentation
Add a first document describing userspace API: how to define and enforce
a Landlock security policy.  This is explained with a simple example.
The Landlock system calls are described with their expected behavior and
current limitations.

Another document is dedicated to kernel developers, describing guiding
principles and some important kernel structures.

This documentation can be built with the Sphinx framework.
