[PATCH v6 4/6] KEYS: validate certificate trust only with selected owner key

[Mimi Zohar]

From: Dmitry Kasatkin <d.kasatkin@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Instead of allowing public keys, with certificates signed by any
key on the system trusted keyring, to be added to a trusted keyring,
this patch further restricts the certificates to those signed by a
particular key on the system keyring.

This patch defines a new kernel parameter 'keys_ownerid' to identify
the owner's key which must be used for trust validation of certificates.

Simplified Mimi's "KEYS: define an owner trusted keyring" patch.

Changelog:
- support for builtin x509 public keys only
- export "asymmetric_keyid_match"
- remove ifndefs MODULE
