Thanks for your point out, I will respin my asymmetric keys patch base
on this tree.

In LPC, Alan and Vojtech raised another thinking is using symmetric key
to protect the hash of snapshot. It's simpler then using RSA private key
to sign it.

Even finally we use the symmetric key solution, I will still respin and
resent the patch for add the leading zero byte:

[PATCH V4 07/15] asymmetric keys: explicitly add the leading zero byte
to encoded message

I think keys-devel tree need it.


Thanks a lot!
