[PATCH 4.16 134/272] ima: Fallback to the builtin hash algorithm

From: Petr Vorel <pvorel@suse.cz>

[ Upstream commit ab60368ab6a452466885ef4edf0cefd089465132 ]

IMA requires having it's hash algorithm be compiled-in due to it's
early use. The default IMA algorithm is protected by Kconfig to be
compiled-in.

The ima_hash kernel parameter allows to choose the hash algorithm. When
the specified algorithm is not available or available as a module, IMA
initialization fails, which leads to a kernel panic (mknodat syscall calls
ima_post_path_mknod()). Therefore as fallback we force IMA to use
the default builtin Kconfig hash algorithm.

Fixed crash:

$ grep CONFIG_CRYPTO_MD4 .config
CONFIG_CRYPTO_MD4=m
