Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] support sign module with SM2-with-SM3 algorithm

The kernel module signature supports the option to use the SM3 secure
hash (OSCCA GM/T 0004-2012 SM3). SM2 and SM3 always appear in pairs.
The former is used for signing and the latter is used for hash
calculation.

To sign a kernel module, first, prepare openssl 3.0.0 alpha6 and a
configuration file openssl.cnf with the following content:

  [ req ]
  default_bits = 2048
  distinguished_name = req_distinguished_name
  prompt = no
  string_mask = utf8only
  x509_extensions = v3_req

  [ req_distinguished_name ]
  C = CN
  ST = HangZhou
  L = foo
  O = Test
  OU = Test
  CN = Test key
  emailAddress = test@....com

  [ v3_req ]
  basicConstraints=critical,CA:FALSE
  keyUsage=digitalSignature
  subjectKeyIdentifier=hash
  authorityKeyIdentifier=keyid:always

Then we can use the following method to sign module with SM2-with-SM3
algorithm combination:

  # generate CA key and self-signed CA certificate
  openssl ecparam -genkey -name SM2 -text -out ca.key
  openssl req -new -x509 -days 3650 -key ca.key \
      -sm3 -sigopt "distid:1234567812345678" \
      -subj "/O=testCA/OU=testCA/CN=testCA/emailAddress=ca@....com" \
      -config openssl.cnf -out ca.crt

  # generate SM2 private key and sign request
  openssl ecparam -genkey -name SM2 -text -out private.pem
  openssl req -new -key private.pem -config openssl.cnf \
      -sm3 -sigopt "distid:1234567812345678" -out csr.pem

  # generate SM2-with-SM3 certificate signed by CA
  openssl x509 -req -days 3650 -sm3 -in csr.pem \
      -sigopt "distid:1234567812345678" \
      -vfyopt "distid:1234567812345678" \
      -CA ca.crt -CAkey ca.key -CAcreateserial \
      -extfile openssl.cnf -extensions v3_req \
      -out cert.pem

  # sign module with SM2-with-SM3 algorithm
  sign-file sm3 private.pem cert.pem test.ko test.ko.signed

At this point, we should built the CA certificate into the kernel, and
then we can load the SM2-with-SM3 signed module normally.

---
v2 change:
  - split one patch into twos.
  - richer commit log.
