[PATCH v2 0/3] Provide PowerVM LPAR Platform KeyStore driver for Self Encrypting Drives

[Nayna Jain <nayna@linux.ibm.com>]

PowerVM provides an isolated Platform KeyStore(PKS)[1] storage allocation
for each partition(LPAR) with individually managed access controls to store
sensitive information securely. The Linux Kernel can access this storage by
interfacing with the hypervisor using a new set of hypervisor calls. 

This storage can be used for multiple purposes. The current two usecases
are:

1. Guest Secure Boot on PowerVM[2]
2. Self Encrypting Drives(SED) on PowerVM[3]

Initially, the PowerVM LPAR Platform KeyStore(PLPKS) driver was defined
as part of RFC patches which included the user interface design for guest
secure boot[2]. While this interface is still in progress, the same driver
is also required for Self Encrypting Drives(SED) support. For this reason,
the driver is being split from the patchset[1] and is now separately posted
with SED arch-specific code.

This patchset provides driver for PowerVM LPAR Platform KeyStore and also
arch-specific code for SED to make use of it.

The dependency patch from patch series[3] is moved to this patchset. This
patchset now builds completely of its own.

Changelog:

v2:

* Include feedback from Gregory Joyce, Eric Richter and Murilo Opsfelder Araújo.
* Include suggestions from Michael Ellerman.
* Moved a dependency from generic SED code to this patchset. This patchset now
builds of its own.
