The vfree may need to be removed or replaced with 
ima_free_kexec_file_buf() but it doesn't seem to solve the problem alone.
I got rid of this issue later with this:

static void ima_reset_kexec_file(struct seq_file *sf)
{
         sf->buf = NULL;
         sf->size = 0;
         sf->read_pos = 0;
         sf->count = 0;
}

static void ima_free_kexec_file_buf(struct seq_file *sf)
{
         vfree(sf->buf);
         ima_reset_kexec_file(sf);
}

[...]
