Re: [PATCH v4 4/5] arm64: Store IMA log information in kimage used for kexec

Address and size of the buffer containing the IMA measurement log need
to be passed from the current kernel to the next kernel on kexec.

Add address and size fields to "struct kimage_arch" for ARM64 platform
to hold the address and size of the IMA measurement log buffer.
Define an architecture specific function for ARM64 namely
arch_ima_add_kexec_buffer() that will set the address and size of
the current kernel's IMA buffer to be passed to the next kernel on kexec.

IMHO this patch and the next one can be squashed together. Also, a minor
comment below.

There's no need to define arch_ima_add_kexec_buffer() if
CONFIG_IMA_KEXEC isn't set because in that case, the code which calls
this function in ima_add_kexec_buffer() won't be part of the build.
