The existing upstream code doesn't require secureboot to load the
MOK/MOKx keys. Why is your change being made downstream?

Are you aware of Eric Snowberg's "Enroll kernel keys thru MOK" patch
set? When INTEGRITY_MACHINE_KEYRING is enabled and new UEFI variables
are enabled, instead of loading the MOK keys onto the .platform
keyring, they're loaded onto a new keyring name ".machine", which is
linked to the secondary keyring.

Eric's patchset doesn't add a new check either to make sure secure boot
is enabled before loading the MOK/MOKx keys.

thanks,

Mimi
