Today only "measure" and "appraise" rules are included in the arch
specific policy, but someone might decide they want to include "audit"
rules as well.

I'm not if the "secure_boot" flag is available prior to calling
default_appraise_setup(), but if it is, you could modify the test
there to also check if the system is booted in secure boot mode (eg.
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_IMA_APPRAISE_BOOTPARAM) &&
!arch_ima_get_secureboot())

Only "appraise" rules are enforced.
