Linux Kernel supports end-to-end attested patches (including using PGP), but
the implementation took a slightly different direction, because there are
important downsides to PGP-signed messages when it comes to patch workflows.

See the following project:
https://pypi.org/project/patatt/

There is a section on that page that describes why PGP-signed patches aren't
the preferred way to go for many people.
