In order to measure and appraise files being read by the kernel,
new module and kexec syscalls were defined which include a file
descriptor. Other places in the kernel (eg. firmware, IMA,
sound) also read files.
This patch introduces a common function for reading files from
the kernel with the corresponding security post-read hook and
function.
Changelog:
- Add missing <linux/vmalloc.h>
