This doesn't work afaict. If the file is opened for writing ima may
update xattrs. But by the time security_file_free() is called
put_file_access() has already been called which will have given up write
access to the file's mount.
So you would have to - just one of the possibilities - have to move
security_file_free() out of file_free() and into the old ima_file_free()
location. But that might cause semantic changes for other LSMs.
