Here is an example of using the term "system trusted keyrings", which
the previous patch removes.

Only certificates signed by a key on the system keyring were added to
the IMA keyring, unless IMA_MOK_KEYRING was configured. Then, the
certificate could be signed by a either a key on the system or ima_mok
keyrings. To replicate this behavior, the default behavior should be to
only permit certificates signed by a key on the builtin keyring, unless
this new Kconfig is enabled. Only then, permit certificates signed by a
key on either the builtin or secondary keyrings to be added to the IMA
keyring.
