Please define a new kernel_read_file_id for this (eg.
READING_FIRMWARE_EFI_EMBEDDED).

Instead of calling security_kernel_post_read_file(), either in
device_property_read_bool() or here call security_kernel_read_file().

The pre read call is for deciding whether to allow this call
independent of the firmware being loaded, whereas the post security
call is currently being used by IMA-appraisal for verifying a
signature.  There might be other LSMs using the post hook as well.  As
there is no kernel signature associated with this firmware, use the
security pre read_file hook.

thanks,
