From: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@huawei.com> With the upcoming change of dynamically allocating and replacing the hash table, the ima_h_table structure would have been replaced with a new one. However, since the ima_h_table structure contains also the counters for number of measurements entries and violations, we would have needed to preserve their values in the new ima_h_table structure. Instead, separate those counters from the hash table, remove the ima_h_table structure, and just replace the hash table pointer. Finally, rename ima_show_htable_value(), ima_show_htable_violations() and ima_htable_violations_ops respectively to ima_show_counter(), ima_show_num_violations() and ima_num_violations_ops.
