do_get_kexec_buffer() is still duplicated in generic code and powerpc
code. It's a small and simple function though, so not really a problem.

I think you'll need to move over remove_ima_buffer() if you agree with
the comment I'll make on patch 3, in which case the powerpc-specific
do_get_kexec_buffer() can be removed.
