Address and size of the buffer containing the IMA measurement log need

Add address and size fields to "struct kimage_arch" for ARM64 platform
to hold the address and size of the IMA measurement log buffer.
Define an architecture specific function for ARM64 namely
arch_ima_add_kexec_buffer() that will set the address and size of
the current kernel's IMA buffer to be passed to the next kernel on kexec.

Any reason these definitions are not conditionally defined based on
CONFIG_IMA_KEXEC, like on powerpc?

I'll define ima buffer related fields conditionally (CONFIG_IMA_KEXEC).

This is exactly the same as the powerpc version. Couldn't there be a
common version of this as well?

I think it can be moved to a common version. I'll make that change.
