[PATCH v6 01/12] ima: Remove ima_h_table structure

From: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu at huawei.com>
The ima_h_table structure is a collection of IMA measurement list
metadata - number of records in the IMA measurement list, number of
integrity violations, and a hash table containing the IMA template data
hash, needed to prevent measurement list record duplication.
Removing records from the measurement list needs to be reflected in the
hash table. As a pre-req to removing records from the measurement list,
separate those counters from the hash table, remove the ima_h_table
structure, and just replace the hash table pointer.
Finally, rename ima_show_htable_value(), ima_show_htable_violations()
and ima_htable_violations_ops respectively to ima_show_counter(),
ima_show_num_violations() and ima_num_violations_ops.
