Hi Coiby,

Hi Mimi,


According to https://docs.kernel.org/process/submitting-patches.html,the summary line should be no more than 70 - 75 characters.

Thanks for pointing me to this limit! How about integrity: eliminate harmless error "Problem loading X.509 certificate -126"?

Currently when the kernel fails to add a cert to the .machine keyring,
it will throw an error immediately in the function integrity_add_key.

Since the kernel will try adding to the .platform keyring next or throw
an error (in the caller of integrity_add_key i.e. add_to_machine_keyring),
so there is no need to throw an error immediately in integrity_add_key.

Otherwise, the patch looks good.

Thanks for reviewing the patch!
