As I explained in the response to other patch, the purpose is to 
indicate that it is an auxiliary measurement record. By passing func as 
NONE, it implies there is no explicit policy to be queried for the 
template as it is an additional record for an existing policy and is to 
use ima-buf template.

What type of confusion do you mean ?
