For ppc64 CONFIG_HAVE_IMA_KEXEC is selected when CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is 
enabled. So I don't see a problem in reusing CONFIG_HAVE_IMA_KEXEC for ppc.

But for arm64, CONFIG_HAVE_IMA_KEXEC is enabled in the final patch in 
the patch set (the one for carrying forward IMA log across kexec for 
arm64). arm64 calls of_kexec_alloc_and_setup_fdt() prior to enabling 
CONFIG_HAVE_IMA_KEXEC and hence breaks the build for arm64.
