[1/6] security/keys/encrypted: Allow operation without trusted.ko

Series security/keys/encrypted: Break module dependency chain | expand

Commit Message

The trusted.ko module may fail to load. In the common case this failure
is simply due to the platform missing a TPM. Teach the encrypted_keys
implementation to lookup the key type by name rather than having a
module dependency.

Fixes: 240730437deb ("KEYS: trusted: explicitly use tpm_chip structure...")
