I'll look at the patches, but in the meantime we also needed the
following patch.

commit 8262bb85da4a71c4ff8c9b22e03aff11f8427b6d

    ima: initialize ima before inodes can be allocated
    
    ima wants to create an inode information struct (iint) when inodes are
    allocated.  This means that at least the part of ima which does this
    allocation (the allocation is filled with information later) should
    before any inodes are created.  To accomplish this we split the ima
    initialization routine placing the kmem cache allocator inside a
    security_initcall() function.  Since this makes use of radix trees we also
    need to make sure that is initialized before security_initcall().
