[RFC 2/5] KEYS/certs: Start the builtin key and cert system earlier

From: Jeremy Linton
Date: Tue Oct 15 2024 - 18:23:12 EST


This exists at the moment to assure that the module signature checking
logic can be utilized before the initramfs is mounted.

Assuming we want to use the built in keys as well as MOK's to validate
an init image, is just moving this stuff earlier in the boot process
the right choice?
