Measuring keys requires a custom IMA policy to be loaded.
Keys created or updated before a custom IMA policy is loaded should
be queued and the keys should be processed after a custom policy
is loaded.

This patch defines workqueue for queuing keys when a custom IMA policy
has not yet been loaded.

A flag namely ima_process_keys is used to check if the key should be
queued or should be processed immediately.

Thank you for moving the initialization here.  The comment is now
valid and the following code is now guaranteed to execute just once.

The new changes - checking if the list is empty and this test - are
unnecessary, as you implied earlier.

Do you want me to remove this check? I feel it is safer to have this 
check - use a local flag "process" to return if no keys were moved to 
the temp list. Would like to leave it as is - if you don't mind.

thanks,
