[RFC v2 0/6] Introduce TEE based Trusted Keys support

Hi,

Interesting, I wrote something similar and posted it to the lists a while back:
https://github.com/jkrh/linux/commit/d77ea03afedcb5fd42234cd834da8f8a0809f6a6

Since there are no generic 'TEEs' available, I implemented the same
thing as a generic protocol translator. The shared memory binding for
instance already assumes fair amount about the TEE and how that is
physically present in the system. Besides, the help from usage of shm
is pretty limited due to the size of the keydata.
