[PATCH v4 16/19] ima: support for kexec image and initramfs

Add IMA policy support for measuring/appraising the kexec image and
initramfs. Two new IMA policy identifiers KEXEC_KERNEL_CHECK and
KEXEC_INITRAMFS_CHECK are defined.

Example policy rules:
measure func=KEXEC_KERNEL_CHECK
appraise func=KEXEC_KERNEL_CHECK appraise_type=imasig
measure func=KEXEC_INITRAMFS_CHECK
appraise func=KEXEC_INITRAMFS_CHECK appraise_type=imasig

Moving the enumeration to the vfs layer simplified the patches, allowing
the IMA changes, for the most part, to be separated from the other
changes.  Unfortunately, passing either a kernel_read_file_id or a
ima_hooks enumeration within IMA is messy.

Option 1: duplicate kernel_read_file enumeration in ima_hooks

enum kernel_read_file_id {
	...
        READING_KEXEC_IMAGE,
        READING_KEXEC_INITRAMFS,
        READING_MAX_ID

enum ima_hooks {
	...
	KEXEC_KERNEL_CHECK
	KEXEC_INITRAMFS_CHECK

Option 2: define ima_hooks as extension of kernel_read_file
eg: enum ima_hooks {
        FILE_CHECK = READING_MAX_ID,
        MMAP_CHECK,

In order to pass both kernel_read_file_id and ima_hooks values, we
would need to specify a struct containing a union.

struct caller_id {
        union {
                enum ima_hooks func_id;
                enum kernel_read_file_id read_id;
        };
};

Option 3: incorportate the ima_hooks enumeration into kernel_read_file_id,
perhaps changing the enumeration name.

For now, duplicate the new READING_KEXEC_IMAGE/INITRAMFS in the ima_hooks.

Changelog v4:
- replaced switch statement with a kernel_read_file_id to an ima_hooks
id mapping array - Dmitry
- renamed ima_hook tokens KEXEC_CHECK and INITRAMFS_CHECK to
KEXEC_KERNEL_CHECK and KEXEC_INITRAMFS_CHECK respectively - Dave Young
