THOBY Simon 7b2e93207c IMA: remove the dependency on CRYPTO_MD5
commit 8510505d55e194d3f6c9644c9f9d12c4f6b0395a upstream.

MD5 is a weak digest algorithm that shouldn't be used for cryptographic
operation. It hinders the efficiency of a patch set that aims to limit
the digests allowed for the extended file attribute namely security.ima.
MD5 is no longer a requirement for IMA, nor should it be used there.

The sole place where we still use the MD5 algorithm inside IMA is setting
the ima_hash algorithm to MD5, if the user supplies 'ima_hash=md5'
parameter on the command line.  With commit ab60368ab6 ("ima: Fallback
to the builtin hash algorithm"), setting "ima_hash=md5" fails gracefully
when CRYPTO_MD5 is not set:
	ima: Can not allocate md5 (reason: -2)
	ima: Allocating md5 failed, going to use default hash algorithm sha256

Remove the CRYPTO_MD5 dependency for IMA.
