Since powerpc also supports IMA_ARCH_POLICY for kernel image signature 
verification, please include the following:

"An alternative implementation for the powerpc arch is 
IMA_ARCH_POLICY. It verifies the appended kernel image signature and 
additionally includes both the signed and unsigned file hashes in the 
IMA measurement list, extends the IMA PCR in the TPM, and prevents 
blacklisted binary kernel images from being kexec'd"

Thanks & Regards,
