[PATCH v5 6/7] IMA: add critical_data to the built-in policy rules

From: Lakshmi Ramasubramanian <nramas at linux.microsoft.com>
The IMA hook to measure kernel critical data, namely
ima_measure_critical_data(), could be called before a custom IMA policy
is loaded. For example, SELinux calls ima_measure_critical_data() to
measure its state and policy when they are initialized. This occurs
before a custom IMA policy is loaded, and hence IMA hook will not
measure the data. A built-in policy is therefore needed to measure
critical data provided by callers before a custom IMA policy is loaded.
Add CRITICAL_DATA to built-in IMA rules if the kernel command line
contains "ima_policy=critical_data". Set the IMA template for this rule
to "ima-buf" since ima_measure_critical_data() measures a buffer.
