Hi, In looking for closely at the additions that got made to the kernel_read_file() enums, I noticed that FIRMWARE_PREALLOC_BUFFER and FIRMWARE_EFI_EMBEDDED were added, but they are not appropriate *kinds* of files for the LSM to reason about. They are a "how" and "where", respectively. Remove these improper aliases and refactor the code to adapt to the changes. Additionally adds in missing calls to security_kernel_post_read_file() in the platform firmware fallback path (to match the sysfs firmware fallback path) and in module loading. I considered entirely removing security_kernel_post_read_file() hook since it is technically unused, but IMA probably wants to be able to measure EFI-stored firmware images, so I wired it up and matched it for modules, in case anyone wants to move the module signature checks out of the module core and into an LSM to avoid the current layering violations. This touches several trees, and I suspect it would be best to go through James's LSM tree.
