The last time that I sent for hibernation encryption and authentication is
here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/1/3/281

It needs some big changes after review:
- Simplify the design: remove keyring dependency and trampoline.
- Encrypted whole snapshot image instead of only data pages.
- Using TPM:
- Direct use TPM API in hibernation instead of keyring
- Localities (suggested by James Bottomley)

I am still finding enough time to implement those changes, especial TPM
parts.

Thanks
