Thanks for reviewing the changes.

In "drivers/of/kexec.c" the function remove_ima_buffer() is defined 
under "#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_IMA_KEXEC"

setup_ima_buffer() is defined under "#ifdef CONFIG_IMA_KEXEC" - the same 
way it was defined in "arch/powerpc/kexec/ima.c".

As you know, CONFIG_IMA_KEXEC depends on CONFIG_HAVE_IMA_KEXEC (as 
defined in "security/integrity/ima/Kconfig").

ima_get_kexec_buffer() and ima_free_kexec_buffer() are unconditionally 
defined in "drivers/of/kexec.c" even though they are called only when 
CONFIG_HAVE_IMA_KEXEC is enabled. I will update these two functions to 
be moved under "#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_IMA_KEXEC"

Rob/Mimi/Thiago - Please let me know if you have other comments in the 
v13 patches. Will address those as well and post v14.

thanks,
