I am done with the whole patchset understanding. My concern is if this
TPM PCRs content can be carried over through newly introduced KHO. I can
see that these patchset doesn't introduce too much new code changes,
while if many conponents need do this, kexec reboot will be patched all
over its body and become ugly and hard to maintain.

Please check Mike Rapoport's v4 patchset to see if IMA can register
itself to KHO and do somthing during 2nd kernel init to restore those
TPM PCRs content to make sure all measurement logs are read correctly.
