Hi Matthew,Mimi,

Few queries in context of 4.14 kernel:
- Does it support portable EVM feature.
- For EVM traditionally we need to sign files on the device itself.
Can we now use portable EVM as a method to sign files during build
itself.

Regards,
Rishi

Normally new features aren't back ported to stable, but for some
reason this was back ported to stable linux-4.14.y.

In the future, using "git blame" will identify the patch in which a
new feature is added.  From there, you can use "git branch -r --
contains <commit number>" to see in which release it was introduced.
