Subject: [PATCH 3/3] integrity/platform_certs: Allow loading of keys in static key management mode
On PLPKS enabled PowerVM LPAR, there is no provision to load signed
third-party kernel modules when the key management mode is static. This
is because keys from secure boot secvars are only loaded when the key
management mode is dynamic.
Allow loading of the trustedcadb and moduledb keys even in the static
key management mode, where the secvar format string takes the form
"ibm,plpks-sb-v0".
