af34cb0c3d KEYS: Make the system 'trusted' keyring viewable by userspace
Give the root user the ability to read the system keyring and put read
permission on the trusted keys added during boot.  The latter is actually more
theoretical than real for the moment as asymmetric keys do not currently
provide a read operation.

008643b86c KEYS: Add a 'trusted' flag and a 'trusted only' flag
Add KEY_FLAG_TRUSTED to indicate that a key either comes from a trusted source
or had a cryptographic signature chain that led back to a trusted key the
kernel already possessed.

Add KEY_FLAGS_TRUSTED_ONLY to indicate that a keyring will only accept links to
keys marked with KEY_FLAGS_TRUSTED.

Separate the kernel signature checking keyring from module signing so that it
can be used by code other than the module-signing code.
