All that is is needed is the key and public_key structures, which are
defined in include/linux/keys.h and include/crypto/public_key.h. ÂIf
the keys subsystem is disabled, then the new IMA hook won't be called.
ÂThere's no need for a new Kconfig option or a new file.

Please move the hook to just after ima_kexec_cmdline().
