Great catch.
We obviously don't want to include the entire buf in the audit message,
especially when the measure_buf_hash is set to true. (the buffer being
measured is expected to be large in that case)

How about the following? Does it look ok to you? Mimi?

if (measure_buf_hash)
     ret = ima_store_template(entry, violation, NULL, buf_hash, pcr);
else
     ret = ima_store_template(entry, violation, NULL, buf, pcr);
