Subject: [RFC PATCH v10 05/17] ipe: introduce 'boot_verified' as a trust provider

From: Deven Bowers <[email protected]>

IPE is designed to provide system level trust guarantees, this usually
implies that trust starts from bootup with a hardware root of trust,
which validates the bootloader. After this, the bootloader verifies the
kernel and the initramfs.

As there's no currently supported integrity method for initramfs, and
it's typically already verified by the bootloader, introduce a property
that causes the first superblock to have an execution to be "pinned",
which is typically initramfs.

When the "pinned" device is unmounted, it will be "unpinned" and
`boot_verified` property will always evaluate to false afterward.

We use a pointer with a spin_lock to "pin" the device instead of rcu
because rcu synchronization may sleep, which is not allowed when
unmounting a device.

You generally don't need to explicitly specify a case if the code
immediately falls through to 'default'.

Once again, don't use a goto when the jump destination simply does a
return, do the return directly.
