Fix a potential RCU issue where ima_measurements list is traversed using
list_for_each_entry_rcu() without proper RCU read lock protection. This
caused warnings when CONFIG_PROVE_RCU was enabled:

  security/integrity/ima/ima_kexec.c:40 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!

Add rcu_read_lock() before iterating over ima_measurements list to ensure
proper RCU synchronization, consistent with other RCU list traversals in
the codebase.
