From: Luca Boccassi <bluca at debian.org>

If enabled, we fallback to the platform keyring if the trusted keyring doesn't have
the key used to sign the roothash. But if pkcs7_verify() rejects the key for other
reasons, such as usage restrictions, we do not fallback. Do so, following the same
change in dm-verity.

The equivalent change in dm-verity was accepted, so apply it to IPE as well:
