    kexec_file: Restrict at runtime if the kernel is locked down
    
    When KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG is not enabled, kernel should not load images through
    kexec_file systemcall if the kernel is locked down unless IMA can be used
    to validate the image.
    
    [Modified by David Howells to fit with modifications to the previous patch
     and to return -EPERM if the kernel is locked down for consistency with
     other lockdowns]
