[PATCH v4 6/6] IMA: validate supported kernel data sources before measurement

[Tushar Sugandhi]

Currently, IMA does not restrict random data sources from measuring
their data using ima_measure_critical_data(). Any kernel data source can
call the function, and it's data will get measured as long as the input
event_data_source is part of the IMA policy - RITICAL_DATA+data_sources.
Supporting random data sources at run-time may impact the reliability of
the system.

To ensure that only data from supported sources are measured, the kernel
component needs to be added to a compile-time list of supported sources
(an "allowed list of components"). IMA then validates the input
parameter - "event_data_source" passed to ima_measure_critical_data()
against this allowed list at run-time.

This compile time list must be updated when kernel components are
updated to measure their data using IMA.

Provide an infrastructure for kernel data sources to be added to
IMA's supported data sources list at compile-time. Update
ima_measure_critical_data() to validate, at run-time, that the data
source is supported before measuring the data coming from that source.
