Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ima: Add machine keyring reference to IMA_KEYRINGS_PERMIT_SIGNED_BY_BUILTIN_OR_SECONDARY

When the machine keyring is enabled, it may be used as a trust source
for the .ima keyring. Add a reference to this in
IMA_KEYRINGS_PERMIT_SIGNED_BY_BUILTIN_OR_SECONDARY.

Hi Eric,

The subject line is referred to as the 'summary' phrase. As far as I'm
aware the length is still between 70-75 charcaters. Refer to
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst
.

Please add 'machine' in between built-in and secondary, like described
below.
