From af1eb2913275c3ab1598b0c24c893499092df08a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Woodhouse Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2015 21:16:28 +0100 Subject: modsign: Allow password to be specified for signing key We don't want this in the Kconfig since it might then get exposed in /proc/config.gz. So make it a parameter to Kbuild instead. This also means we don't have to jump through hoops to strip quotes from it, as we would if it was a config option.
