Subject[PATCH] powerpc: check previous kernel's ima-kexec-buffer against memory bounds
Date
Presently ima_get_kexec_buffer() doesn't check if the previous kernel's
ima-kexec-buffer lies outside the addressable memory range. This can result
in a kernel panic if the new kernel is booted with 'mem=X' arg and the
ima-kexec-buffer was allocated beyond that range by the previous kernel.
The panic is usually of the form below:

$ sudo kexec --initrd initrd vmlinux --append='mem=16G'

BUG: Unable to handle kernel data access on read at 0xc000c01fff7f0000
Faulting instruction address: 0xc000000000837974

Fix this issue by checking returned address/size of previous kernel's
ima-kexec-buffer against memblock's memory bounds.
