[PATCH] trusted-keys-fix-migratable-logic

[david.safford]

When creating (sealing) a new trusted key, migratable
trusted keys have the FIXED_TPM and FIXED_PERM attributes
set, and non-migratable keys don't. This is backwards, and
also causes creation to fail when creating a migratable key
under a migratable parent. (The TPM thinks you are trying to
seal a non-migratable blob under a migratable parent.)

The following simple patch fixes the logic, and has been
tested for all four combinations of migratable and non-migratable
trusted keys and parent storage keys. With this logic, you will
get a proper failure if you try to create a non-migratable 
trusted key under a migratable parent storage key, and all other
combinations work correctly.

Thanks for your patch. It looks sensible, but needs some work to
be aligned to the kernel patch guidelines, documented here:
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst

What I noticed in particular:

  - Your Signed-off-by is missing
  - Your patch title needs alignment to others in the revision history,
    you could change it e.g. "KEYS: trusted: tpm2: Fix migratable logic"
  - The To:/Cc: list is incomplete. Patches to this file are normally
    merged via Jarkko's tree. get_maintainers.pl will produce a full list
    of people and mailing lists to copy.

Looking forward to your v2.

Cheers,
Ahmad

The code change looks legit but it also needs to have this:

Fixes: e5fb5d2c5a03 ("security: keys: trusted: Make sealed key properly interoperable")
