[ Upstream commit 6d14c6517885fa68524238787420511b87d671df ]
IMA allocates kernel virtual memory to carry forward the measurement list, from the current kernel to the next kernel on kexec system call, in ima_add_kexec_buffer() function. In error code paths this memory is not freed resulting in memory leak.
Free the memory allocated for the IMA measurement list in the error code paths in ima_add_kexec_buffer() function.
