Are you asking about coordinating staging the trusted key patches to
be upstreamed or about moving portions of the encrypted keys code out
of the keyring subsystem?

I'm not sure there needs to be a separate encrypted-keys pull request.
 Either they can be upstreamed via the TPM or the integrity subsystem
for now.
