ima: skip measurement of cgroupfs files and update documentation
This patch adds a rule in the default measurement policy to skip inodes in the cgroupfs filesystem. Measurements for this filesystem can be avoided, as all the digests collected have the same value of the digest of an empty file. Furthermore, this patch updates the documentation of IMA policies in Documentation/ABI/testing/ima_policy to make it consistent with the policies set in security/integrity/ima/ima_policy.c.
