The purpose of this patch is to make process_buffer_measurement() more
generic.  The patch description should simply say,
process_buffer_measurement() is limited to measuring the kexec boot
command line.  This patch makes process_buffer_measurement() more
generic, allowing it to measure other types of buffer data (eg.
blacklisted binary hashes).
