As I'd stated in the other response, I wanted to isolate all key related 
code in a separate C file and build it if and only if all CONFIG 
dependencies are met.

I can do the following:

=> Define the IMA hook in ima_asymmetric_keys.c instead of ima_main.c

=> In include/linux/ima.h declare the IMA hook if 
CONFIG_IMA_MEASURE_ASYMMETRIC_KEYS is enabled.
Else, NOP it.

#ifdef CONFIG_IMA_MEASURE_ASYMMETRIC_KEYS
extern void ima_post_key_create_or_update(struct key *keyring,
					  struct key *key,
					  unsigned long flags,
                                           bool create);
#else
static inline void ima_post_key_create_or_update(struct key *keyring,
						 struct key *key,
						 unsigned long flags,
						 bool create) {}
#endif

Would that be acceptable?

thanks,
