ima: properly free ima_template_entry structures
The new templates management mechanism records information associated to an event into an array of 'ima_field_data' structures and makes it available through the 'template_data' field of the 'ima_template_entry' structure (the element of the measurements list created by IMA). Since 'ima_field_data' contains dynamically allocated data (which length varies depending on the data associated to a selected template field), it is not enough to just free the memory reserved for a 'ima_template_entry' structure if something goes wrong. This patch creates the new function ima_free_template_entry() which walks the array of 'ima_field_data' structures, frees the memory referenced by the 'data' pointer and finally the space reserved for the 'ima_template_entry' structure. Further, it replaces existing kfree() that have a pointer to an 'ima_template_entry' structure as argument with calls to the new function.
