[PATCH v1 3/3] ima: provide double buffering for hash calculation

[Dmitry Kasatkin]

Asynchronous hash API allows initiate hash calculation and perform
other tasks while hash is calculated.

This patch introduces usage of double buffering for simultenous
hashing and reading of the next chunk of data from the storage.
