[PATCH] KEYS: trusted: Do not use WARN when encode fails

[PATCH] KEYS: trusted: Do not use WARN when encode fails

[Jarkko Sakkinen]

Error on asn1_encode_sequence() is handled with a WARN incorrectly
because:

1. asn1_encode_sequence() is not an internal function (located
   in lib/asn1_encode.c).
2. Location on known, which makes the stack trace useless.
3. Results a crash if panic_on_warn is set.

It is also noteworthy that the use of WARN is undocumented, and it
should be avoided unless there is carefully considered rationale to use
it, which is now non-existent.

Replace WARN with pr_err, and print the return value instead, which is
only useful piece of information (and was not printed).
