Subject: [PATCH 3/3] MODSIGN: Split user-supplied and autogenerated signing key

Allow the users to place signing_key.{x509,priv} and x509.genkey in the
source tree. If any of these files is missing, generate the file in the
build tree with an .auto suffix. This avoids problems with overwriting
user-supplied files.

-Under normal conditions, the kernel build will automatically generate a new
-keypair using openssl if one does not exist in the files:
+The kernel expects the keypair to be stored in the files:
 
 	signing_key.priv
 	signing_key.x509
 
+If the keypair is not supplied, the kernel will generate it as:
+
+	signing_key.priv.auto
+	signing_key.x509.auto
+
 during the building of vmlinux (the public part of the key needs to be built
 into vmlinux) using parameters in the:
 
 	x509.genkey
 
-file (which is also generated if it does not already exist).
+file (which, if not supplied, is also generated as x509.genkey.auto).
 
 It is strongly recommended that you provide your own x509.genkey file.
