Bug Description
[Impact]
When producing a new version of some kernels, we need to check for changes that might affect FIPS or other certs and justify why a commit was kept or removed.
To simplify this process we can add an automated check that will abort the kernel preparation and build when such changes exist without a justification.
[Test Plan]
Check if the kernel preparation fails (cranky close) when one of a security certification changes is added.
[Where problems could occur]
No kernels should be affected until we enable this check on each one. Even when enabled, that only affects the kernel preparation and not the resulting kernel.
