Having the big_keys functionality as a module is very marginally useful.
The userspace code that would use this functionality will get odd error

The IMA measurement list contains two hashes - a template data hash
and a filedata hash. The template data hash is committed to the TPM,
which is limited, by the TPM v1.2 specification, to 20 bytes. The
filedata hash is defined as 20 bytes as well.
Now that support for variable length measurement list templates was
added, the filedata hash is not limited to 20 bytes. This patch adds
Kconfig support for defining larger default filedata hash algorithms
and replacing the builtin default with one specified on the kernel
command line.
<uapi/linux/hash_info.h> contains a list of hash algorithms. The
Kconfig default hash algorithm is a subset of this list, but any hash
algorithm included in the list can be specified at boot, using the
'ima_hash=' kernel command line option.
Changelog v2:
- update Kconfig

The same hash algorithm should be used for calculating the file
data hash for the IMA measurement list, as for appraising the file
data integrity. (The appraise hash algorithm is stored in the
'security.ima' extended attribute.) The exception is when the
reference file data hash digest, stored in the extended attribute,
is larger than the one supported by the template. In this case,
the file data hash needs to be calculated twice, once for the
measurement list and, again, for appraisal.

The original 'ima' template is fixed length, containing the filedata hash
and pathname. The filedata hash is limited to 20 bytes (md5/sha1). The
pathname is a null terminated string, limited to 255 characters. To
overcome these limitations and to add additional file metadata, it is
necessary to extend the current version of IMA by defining additional
templates.
The main reason to introduce this feature is that, each time a new
template is defined, the functions that generate and display the
measurement list would include the code for handling a new format and,
thus, would significantly grow over time.
This patch set solves this problem by separating the template management
from the remaining IMA code. The core of this solution is the definition
of two new data structures: a template descriptor, to determine which
information should be included in the measurement list, and a template
field, to generate and display data of a given type.
To define a new template field, developers define the field identifier
and implement two functions, init() and show(), respectively to generate
and display measurement entries. Initially, this patch set defines the
following template fields (support for additional data types will be
added later):
- 'd': the digest of the event (i.e. the digest of a measured file),
calculated with the SHA1 or MD5 hash algorithm;
- 'n': the name of the event (i.e. the file name), with size up to
255 bytes;
- 'd-ng': the digest of the event, calculated with an arbitrary hash
algorithm (field format: [<hash algo>:]digest, where the digest
prefix is shown only if the hash algorithm is not SHA1 or MD5);
- 'n-ng': the name of the event, without size limitations.
Defining a new template descriptor requires specifying the template format,
a string of field identifiers separated by the '|' character. This patch
set defines the following template descriptors:
- "ima": its format is 'd|n';
- "ima-ng" (default): its format is 'd-ng|n-ng'
Further details about the new template architecture can be found in
Documentation/security/IMA-templates.txt.

Instead of allocating and initializing the template entry from multiple
places (eg. boot aggregate, violation, and regular measurements), this
patch defines a new function called ima_alloc_init_template(). The new
function allocates and initializes the measurement entry with the inode
digest and the filename.
In respect to the current behavior, it truncates the file name passed
in the 'filename' argument if the latter's size is greater than 255 bytes
and the passed file descriptor is NULL.

Linux file locking does not follow the same rules
as other mechanisms. Even though it is a write operation
a process can set a read lock on files which it has open
only for read access. Two programs with read access to
a file can use read locks to communicate.
This is not acceptable in a Mandatory Access Control
environment. Smack treats setting a read lock as the
write operation that it is. Unfortunately, many programs
assume that setting a read lock is a read operation.
These programs are unhappy in the Smack environment.
This patch introduces a new access mode (lock) to address
this problem. A process with lock access to a file can
set a read lock. A process with write access to a file can
set a read lock or a write lock. This prevents a situation
where processes are granted write access just so they can
set read locks.
