Originally both ima_get_kexec_buffer() and ima_free_kexec_buffer() were
architecture specific.  Refer to commit 467d27824920 ("powerpc: ima:
get the kexec buffer passed by the previous kernel").  Is there any
need for defining them here behind an "#ifndef CONFIG_OF"?

Only when "HAVE_IMA_KEXEC" is defined is this file included.  Why is
this warning needed?
