The Kconfig conditionally compiles ima_kexec.c based on
CONFIG_HAVE_IMA_KEXEC. This test should be removed from here and from
ima_get_kexec_buffer().
CONFIG_IMA_KEXEC controls whether or not to carry the measurement list
to the next kernel, not whether the measurement list should be
restored. Notice that ima_load_kexec_buffer() is not within the ifdef
CONFIG_IMA_KEXEC.

There should always be at least one measurement - the boot_aggregate.

So other architectures will need to define CONFIG_HAVE_IMA_KEXEC, a
function to call ima_set_kexec_buffer() to restore the measurement
list, and a function equivalent to ima_setup_state().
After removing the unnecessary tests mentioned above, consider whether
there is still any benefit to defining these functions.

Thanks for the explanation.
