[PATCH v4 6/6] x86/ima: define arch_get_ima_policy() for x86

From: Eric Richter <erichte at linux.vnet.ibm.com>

This patch implements an example arch-specific IMA policy for x86 to
enable measurement and appraisal of any kernel image loaded for kexec,
when CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG is not enabled.

For systems with CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG enabled, only the measurement
rule is enabled, not the IMA-appraisal rule.

Signed-off-by: Eric Richter <erichte at linux.vnet.ibm.com>
- Removed the policy KEXEC_ORIG_KERNEL_CHECK which was defined to
  disable the kexec_load syscall.
- arch_get_ima_policy() uses arch_ima_get_secureboot() to get secureboot
  state
