ima_get_kexec_buffer() retrieves the address and size of the buffer

ima_free_kexec_buffer() removes the chosen node namely
"linux,ima-kexec-buffer" from the device tree, and frees the buffer
used for carrying forward the IMA measurement logs on kexec.

These functions do not have architecture specific code, but are
currently limited to powerpc.

Move ima_get_kexec_buffer() and ima_free_kexec_buffer() to ima_kexec.c
in IMA so that they are accessible for other architectures as well.

This sentence flows from the previous line. No need for separate
paragraphs here.

Sure - will update Mimi.


With the above change the functions in arch/powerpc/kexec/ima.c are
defined only when the kernel config CONFIG_IMA_KEXEC is enabled.
Update the Makefile to build arch/powerpc/kexec/ima.c only when
CONFIG_IMA_KEXEC is enabled and remove "#ifdef CONFIG_IMA_KEXEC"
in arch/powerpc/kexec/ima.c.

Please move these functions, after the ifdef below, before the function
where they're used.

Will make the above change.
