Ummm...  Why this way and not as a blacklist key which takes up less space?
I'm guessing that you're using the key chain matching logic.  We really only
need to blacklist the key IDs.

Also, what should happen if a revocation cert rejected by the blacklist?

Hmmm...  The name looks wrong, but I can see the potential issue that kernel
keys can actually be marked revoked as a separate concept.  How about
add_key_to_revocation_list() and is_key_on_revocation_list().
