It seems a bit unnecessary for the PLPKS code to have a user-visible config option when it doesn't do anything on its own, and there's existing options for enabling Secure Boot-related features. It should be enabled by PPC_SECURE_BOOT, which will eventually be what uses PLPKS to populate keyrings. However, we can't get of the separate option completely, because it will also be used for SED Opal purposes. Change PSERIES_PLPKS into a hidden option, which is selected by PPC_SECURE_BOOT.
