The patch titled
     Subject: of/kexec: refactor ima_get_kexec_buffer() to use ima_validate_range()
has been added to the -mm mm-nonmm-unstable branch.  Its filename is
     of-kexec-refactor-ima_get_kexec_buffer-to-use-ima_validate_range.patch

This patch will shortly appear at

Subject: of/kexec: refactor ima_get_kexec_buffer() to use ima_validate_range()
Date: Tue, 30 Dec 2025 22:16:08 -0800

Refactor the OF/DT ima_get_kexec_buffer() to use a generic helper to
validate the address range.  No functional change intended.
