Apologies for forgetting to mention that, I took it from the NXP tree
while removing the SM and SECO bits [1].
I also had to rebase some of their patches onto 5.17 for the CAAM to
probe, as the SCU makes some register pages unavailable.

Thank for you the explanation, it makes sense, and I agree that such work
would be a different patch set.

After I changed trusted keys to a module I got it working. Which is good
enough for me as QXP CAAM support is not upstream yet.

Feel free to add my tested by if you need to make another spin.
Tested-by: John Ernberg <john.ernberg@xxxxxxxx> # iMX8QXP

I didn't test v9 as I would have to patch around the new patch due to
the SCU.
