Subject[PATCH] mm,ima,kexec,of: use memblock_free_late from ima_free_kexec_buffer
The code calling ima_free_kexec_buffer runs long after the memblock
allocator has already been torn down, potentially resulting in a use
after free in memblock_isolate_range.

With KASAN or KFENCE, this use after free will result in a BUG
from the idle task, and a subsequent kernel panic.

Switch ima_free_kexec_buffer over to memblock_free_late to avoid
that issue.

Fixes: fee3ff99bc67 ("powerpc: Move arch independent ima kexec functions to
drivers/of/kexec.c")
