commit 919dc320956ea353a7fb2d84265195ad5ef525ac upstream.
If an fsverity builtin signature is given for a file but the
".fs-verity" keyring is empty, there's no real reason to run the PKCS#7
parser. Skip this to avoid the PKCS#7 attack surface when builtin
signature support is configured into the kernel but is not being used.
This is a hardening improvement, not a fix per se, but I've added
Fixes and Cc stable to get it out to more users.

Fix all kerneldoc warnings in fs/verity/ and include/linux/fsverity.h.
Most of these were due to missing documentation for function parameters.
Detected with:
scripts/kernel-doc -v -none fs/verity/*.{c,h} include/linux/fsverity.h
This cleanup makes it possible to check new patches for kerneldoc
warnings without having to filter out all the existing ones.

To meet some users' needs, add optional support for having fs-verity
handle a portion of the authentication policy in the kernel. An
".fs-verity" keyring is created to which X.509 certificates can be
added; then a sysctl 'fs.verity.require_signatures' can be set to cause
the kernel to enforce that all fs-verity files contain a signature of
their file measurement by a key in this keyring.
See the "Built-in signature verification" section of
Documentation/filesystems/fsverity.rst for the full documentation.
