AppArmor: Ensure the size of the copy is < the buffer allocated to hold it
Actually I think in this case the appropriate thing to do is to BUG as there is currently a case (remove) where the alloc_size needs to be larger than the copy_size, and if copy_size is ever greater than alloc_size there is a mistake in the caller code.
