Subject: [PATCH 5/7] ima: Introduce appraise_exec_immutable policy

This patch modifies the existing "appraise_exec_tcb" policy, by adding the
appraise_type=meta_immutable requirement for executed files. This policy
can be selected by specifying
ima_policy="appraise_exec_tcb|appraise_exec_immutable" in the kernel
command line.
