[PATCH v1 3/5] LSM: Add security_state function pointer in lsm_info struct

The security modules that require their data to be measured using
the IMA subsystem need to define a function that the LSM can call
to trigger the measurement.

Add a function pointer field namely security_state in lsm_info structure.
Update LSM to call this security module function, if defined, to measure
the security module's data using the IMA subsystem.
