[PATCH] ima: Allow template selection with ima_template[_fmt]= after ima_hash=

Commit c2426d2ad5027 ("ima: added support for new kernel cmdline parameter
ima_template_fmt") introduced an additional check on the ima_template
variable to avoid multiple template selection.

Unfortunately, ima_template could be also set by the setup function of the
ima_hash= parameter, when it calls ima_template_desc_current(). This causes
attempts to choose a new template with ima_template= or with
ima_template_fmt=, after ima_hash=, to be ignored.

Achieve the goal of the commit mentioned with the new static variable
template_setup_done, so that template selection requests after ima_hash=
are not ignored.

Finally, call ima_init_template_list(), if not already done, to initialize
the list of templates before lookup_template_desc() is called.
