This patch correctly didn't modify the IMA policy keywords, just the
enumeration, but now the <securityfs> policy file incorrectly displays
the "ima_" prefixed names.

Instead of maintaining an enumeration and the corresponding
stringified version of the enumeration, there is a single list with
two macros.  One of these macros needs to be modified.  Instead of
modifying the the hook names directly, I would probably modify the
enumeration macro.

#define __ima_hook_enumify(ENUM)        ENUM,

enum ima_hooks {
        __ima_hooks(__ima_hook_enumify)
};

and

#define __ima_hook_stringify(str)       (#str),

static const char *const func_tokens[] = {
        __ima_hooks(__ima_hook_stringify)
};
