Okay.

I agree here that 5/5 should go along with TEE patch-set. But if you
look at initial v1 patch-set, the idea was to get feedback on trusted
keys abstraction as a standalone patch along with testing using a TPM
(1.x or 2.0).

Since Mimi has tested this patch-set with TPM (1.x & 2.0), I am happy
to merge 5/5 with TEE patch-set. But it would be nice if I could get
feedback on 5/5 before I send next version of TEE patch-set.

Okay will send next patch-set version with first four patches only.
