Hm, I'm not able to add a key to the system keyring that is signed by a
key on either the system or the IMA MOK keyrings.  The system keyring
seems to be "locked".  A key that is signed by either a key on the
system or the IMA MOK keyring can be added to the IMA keyring.

keyctl show %keyring:.system_keyring
Keyring
 973688077 ---lswrv      0     0  keyring: .system_keyring
    
evmctl import m1-cert-signed.der 973688077
add_key failed
errno: Permission denied (13)
