With the introduction of the mok keyring, the end-user may choose to
trust Machine Owner Keys (MOK) within the kernel. If they have chosen to
trust them, the .mok keyring will contain these keys.  If not, the mok
keyring will always be empty.  Update the restriction check to allow the
secondary trusted keyring to also trust mok keys.

Not everyone needs to build a generic kernel, like the distros.  As
previously discussed, not everyone is willing to trust the new MOK
keyring nor the UEFI variable for enabling it.  For those environments,
they should be able to totally disable the MOK keyring.

Please define a Kconfig similar to "CONFIG_SECONDARY_TRUSTED_KEYRING"
for MOK.  The "restriction" would be based on the new Kconfig being
enabled.

thanks,

Mimi

Yes, I can add that.  Currently there is a Kconfig to enable the secondary 
and another for IMA to trust the secondary.  Would you like to see two new 
Kconfig options added?  One that allows the secondary to use the mok as a new 
trust  source and another for IMA to trust the mok keyring.  Or a single Kconfig 
that handles both?  Thanks.

A single Kconfig option for enabling the new keyring should be fine.
