Missing is "template=ima-buf" on the policy rule.

Tyler's patch set just added some support for verifying the policy.
 Refer to ima_validate_rule().  There are still some things missing.
 For example, nayna noticed that making sure that asymmetric key
support is enabled.  Another example is requiring "template=" for any
of the buffer measurements.  Template names can be defined
dynamically, so it will need to support either format:

measure func=KEXEC_CMDLINE template=ima-buf 
measure func=KEXEC_CMDLINE template=d-ng|n-ng|buf
