According to all consumers code of attrs[XFRMA_SEC_CTX], like
* verify_sec_ctx_len(), convert to xfrm_user_sec_ctx*
* xfrm_state_construct(), call security_xfrm_state_alloc whose prototype
is int security_xfrm_state_alloc(.., struct xfrm_user_sec_ctx *sec_ctx);
* copy_from_user_sec_ctx(), convert to xfrm_user_sec_ctx *
...
It seems that the expected parsing result for XFRMA_SEC_CTX should be
structure xfrm_user_sec_ctx, and the current xfrm_sec_ctx is confusing
and misleading (Luckily, they happen to have same size 8 bytes).
This commit amend the policy structure to xfrm_user_sec_ctx to avoid
ambiguity.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
