[PATCH v5 5/8] ima: kexec: move IMA log copy from kexec load to execute

ima_dump_measurement_list() is called during kexec 'load', which may
result in loss of IMA measurements during kexec soft reboot.  It needs
to be called during kexec 'execute'.

This patch includes the following changes:
 - Call kimage_file_post_load() from kexec_file_load() syscall only for
   kexec soft reboot scenarios and not for KEXEC_FILE_ON_CRASH.  It will
   map the IMA segment, and register reboot notifier for the function
   ima_update_kexec_buffer() which would copy the IMA log at kexec soft
   reboot.
 - Make kexec_segment_size variable local static to the file, for it to be
   accessible both during kexec 'load' and 'execute'.
 - Move ima_dump_measurement_list() call from ima_add_kexec_buffer()
   to ima_update_kexec_buffer().
 - Remove ima_reset_kexec_file() call from ima_add_kexec_buffer(), now
   that the buffer is being copied at kexec 'execute', and resetting the
   file at kexec 'load' will corrupt the buffer.
