Add a new ->integrity_read file operation to read data for
integrity hash collection.  This is defined to be equivalent
to ->read_iter, except that it will be called with the i_rwsem
held exclusively.  Also the presence of ->integrity_read indicates
that the file system can support IMA.

Fixes an IMA+XFS deadlock I've been seeing.
Are you going to pick this up?  Any feedback from the folks on the
LSM list on what additional file systems need to be wired up?
