The "appraise_flag" option is only appropriate for appraise actions and its "blacklist" value is only appropriate when CONFIG_IMA_APPRAISE_MODSIG is enabled and "appraise_flag=blacklist" is only appropriate when "appraise_type=imasig|modsig" is also present. Make this clear at policy load so that IMA policy authors don't assume that other uses of "appraise_flag=blacklist" are supported.
