[PATCH 3/5] ima: Reset EVM status upon detecting changes to overlay backing file

[Stefan Berger]

To avoid caching effects to take effect reset the EVM status upon
detecting changes to the overlay backing files. This prevents a not-yet-
copied-up file on the overlay from executing if for example the
security.evm xattr on the file on the 'lower' layer has been removed.
