when p->pkcs7 is not NULL, p->text points to the plain text policy area inside
the data of p->pkcs7, for such cases p->text is not really an allocated memory chunk
so it cannot be passed to kfree.
I might better add a comment here to avoid confusion in the future.

Sorry for the mistake, I will update them.

Sure, this is better, I will take this idea.

This happens when two spaces are passed, for example "DEFAULT<space><space>action=DENY"
has two spaces inside, the strsep will create a NUL string when it sees the first space,
so for such cases I think we should just skip to the next token.

Yes this is not necessary, I will remove this part.

This one is the same to the parse header function, when two consecutive
delimitators is passed to strsep it will generate a '\0'.

Sure I can change this part, yeah I agree this looks weird.
