Hi Dimitri,
I don't see any problems with this technically, and based on
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1928679 it looks like it is in fact needed.
I suggest a change below, but I'm not sure you should make the change
without confirmation from one of the maintainers that it matches what
they would want.

Rather than passing in a bool here, I would suggest, above this function,
doing something like:
struct moklist_desc {
const char *mokvar_name;
efi_char16_t *efivar_name;
const char *parse_mokvar_name;
const char *parse_efivar_name;
efi_element_handler_t (*get_handler_for_guid)(const efi_guid_t *);
};
struct moklist_desc moklist_descriptor = {
.mokvar_name = "MokListRT",
.efivar_name = L"MokListRT",
.parse_mokvar_name = "UEFI:MokListRT (MOKvar table)",
.parse_efivar_name = "UEFI:MokListRT",
.get_handler_for_guid = get_handler_for_db,
};
struct moklist_desc moxklist_descriptor = {
.mokvar_name = "MokListXRT",
.efivar_name = L"MokListXRT",
.parse_mokvar_name = "UEFI:MokListXRT (MOKvar table)",
.parse_efivar_name = "UEFI:MokListXRT",
.get_handler_for_guid = get_handler_for_dbx,
};
And pass each of those into load_moklist_certs() once.
