[V2 PATCH 2/3] dt-bindings: chosen: Document ima-kexec-buffer

[Prakhar Srivastava]

Integrity measurement architecture(IMA) validates if files
have been accidentally or maliciously altered, both remotely and
locally, appraise a file's measurement against a "good" value stored
as an extended attribute, and enforce local file integrity.

IMA also measures singatures of kernel and initrd during kexec along with
the command line used for kexec.
These measurements are critical to verify the seccurity posture of the OS.

Resering memory and adding the memory information to a device tree node
acts as the mechanism to carry over IMA measurement logs.

Update devicetree documentation to reflect the addition of new property
under the chosen node.

+This property(currently used by powerpc, arm64) holds the memory range,
+the address and the size, of the IMA measurement logs that are being carried

+This porperty does not represent real hardware, but the memory allocated for
+carrying the IMA measurement logs. The address and the suze are expressed in
+#address-cells and #size-cells, respectively of the root node.
