When KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG is not enabled, kernel should not loads image
through kexec_file systemcall if securelevel has been set.

This code was showed in Matthew's patch but not in git:

IMA can be used to verify file signatures too, based on the LSM hooks
in ?kernel_read_file_from_fd(). ?CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG should not be
required.
