[PATCH 4/4] ima: use read_iter (generic_file_read_iter) to calculate file hash

The large marjority of filesystems in the fs directory define
generic_file_read_iter as the read_iter file operation method.

Instead of specifying the integrity_read file operation method
for all of these file systems, continue to calculate the file
hash using the read_iter method, when defined as
generic_file_read_iter.

For all other read_iter methods, define an integrity_read
method.
