Great, we can then name this const.

Yes that's why typically the public key, any context, and nonce would
be hashed. Then we can include the digest into the report.

The way this is currently setup suggests that a user should add a
pubkey with the 'keyctl add tsm ...'. But if a user does this as
described here it won't allow them to set up a secure protocol with a
remote entity.

I think a user could abuse the naming of this system to do the correct
thing by using 'keyctl add tsm ..' over data which is not a public key
and is instead a digest of some public key with additional protocol
data.
