From: Lakshmi Ramasubramanian <nramas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit c5563bad88e07017e08cce1142903e501598c80c ] process_buffer_measurement() may be called prior to IMA being initialized (for instance, when the IMA hook is called when a key is added to the .builtin_trusted_keys keyring), which would result in a kernel panic. This patch adds the check in process_buffer_measurement() to return immediately if IMA is not initialized yet.
