These patches add support for modifying the reserved space for extra 
certificates in a compressed bzImage in x86. This allows separating the 
system keyring certificate from the kernel build process. After the kernel 
image is distributed, the insert-sys-cert script can be used to insert the 
certificate for x86.

Changes:
* Rebased 2/3 on top of be1fb0e8eb082 ("kbuild: delete unnecessary "@:"")

Mehmet Kayaalp (3):
  KEYS: Support for inserting a certificate into x86 bzImage
  KEYS: Insert incompressible bytes to vmlinux to reserve space in
    bzImage
  KEYS: Print insert-sys-cert information to stdout instead of stderr
