Ah, very good question. This IMA hook (KEXEC_CMDLINE) only measures the
string passed to the cmdline argument of the kexec_file_load(2) syscall.
However, kernel commandline options injected into a kernel with the
CONFIG_CMDLINE or CONFIG_CMDLINE_EXTEND Kconfig options would still be
measured, as part of the vmlinux as a whole, by the KEXEC_KERNEL_CHECK
IMA hook.
