The series grew based on requests added in each round. How about
I drop IMA support from the next round? This would eliminate nine patches
from the series (5, 6, 7, 9-14), leaving six patches to introduce and enable
the new machine keyring (3, 4, 8, 15-17). The first two patches could
be taken today. The only reason the first two are included is to get this series
through the kernel test robot.
This would allow the machine keyring to be used for module signing. Afterwards
I could introduce the CA restriction behind another Kconfig in a different series to
add back IMA support. Let me know if this would be a better approach.
