The amount of memory allocated at kexec load, even with the extra memory
allocated, might not be large enough for the entire measurement list.  The
indeterminate interval between kexec 'load' and 'execute' could exacerbate
this problem.

Define two new IMA events, 'kexec_load' and 'kexec_execute', to be
measured as critical data at kexec 'load' and 'execute' respectively.
Report the allocated kexec segment size, IMA binary log size and the
runtime measurements count as part of those events.

These events, and the values reported through them, serve as markers in
the IMA log to verify the IMA events are captured during kexec soft
reboot.  The presence of a 'kexec_load' event in between the last two
'boot_aggregate' events in the IMA log implies this is a kexec soft
reboot, and not a cold-boot. And the absence of 'kexec_execute' event
after kexec soft reboot implies missing events in that window which
results in inconsistency with TPM PCR quotes, necessitating a cold boot
for a successful remote attestation.

These critical data events are displayed as hex encoded ascii in the
ascii_runtime_measurement_list.  Verifying the critical data hash requires
calculating the hash of the decoded ascii string.

For example, to verify the 'kexec_load' data hash:

sudo cat /sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/ascii_runtime_measurements
| grep  kexec_load | cut -d' ' -f 6 | xxd -r -p | sha256sum

To verify the 'kexec_execute' data hash:

sudo cat /sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/ascii_runtime_measurements
| grep kexec_execute | cut -d' ' -f 6 | xxd -r -p | sha256sum
