I would separate this patch into an x509: and certs: part since it touches two subsystems.

I can take this series of patches and post my v9 including them at the end. This would make it easier for others to test. I would massage them a bit, including the separation of the 1st patch into 2 patches, if you don't mind, preserving your Signed-off-by. I need to fix something in my v8 regarding registration failure handling. Let me know whether this is fine with you.

I had tested your patches over the weekend with my endless test tool creating keys in user space and loading them into the kernel. It worked fine for NIST p256 & p384. Also signing kernel modules with NIST p384 is working fine.

So, for the series:
