Yael Tzur cd3bc044af KEYS: encrypted: Instantiate key with user-provided decrypted data
For availability and performance reasons master keys often need to be
released outside of a Key Management Service (KMS) to clients. It
would be beneficial to provide a mechanism where the
wrapping/unwrapping of data encryption keys (DEKs) is not dependent
on a remote call at runtime yet security is not (or only minimally)
compromised. Master keys could be securely stored in the Kernel and
be used to wrap/unwrap keys from Userspace.

The encrypted.c class supports instantiation of encrypted keys with
either an already-encrypted key material, or by generating new key
material based on random numbers. This patch defines a new datablob
format: [<format>] <master-key name> <decrypted data length>
<decrypted data> that allows to inject and encrypt user-provided
decrypted data. The decrypted data must be hex-ascii encoded.
