This is a minimal subset of Peter Staubach's July patch, updated to
apply to the latest kernel. The subset was chosen to demonstrate that
mmaped files are hashed and hmac properly by EVM after being modified

Correct the apparent misspelling of "XMON" to "CONFIG_XMON".

i'm only *guessing* that this is a typo, given that the file
