Correct, I had "certs" in my relative path.

After applying this patch, CONFIG_SYSTEM_BLACKLIST_HASH_LIST now works
like the other filename macros.  It seems like this would be a good
addition.

I have done some additional testing, I am seeing a regression. The blacklist 
keyring is no longer picking up any of the hashes from the dbx during boot. 
I backed out the merge with my changes  (fdbbe7ceeb95090d09c33ce0497e0394c82aa33d) 
and still see the regression.  I then backed out Mickaël merge
(5bf1adccf5c41dbdd51d1f4de220d335d9548598) and it fixes the regression.

On a x86 with the updated dbx from uefi.org, I’d expect to see 234 bin hash entries
in the blacklist keyring.  With the current merged code, there is none.
