[PATCH] certs: Redirect openssl error message to null device

STALE1923d

From: Stefan Berger <hidden>
Date: 2021-06-25 12:29:36
Also in: keyrings, linux-integrity, lkml
Subsystem: certificate handling, the rest · Maintainers: David Howells, David Woodhouse, Linus Torvalds

From: Stefan Berger <stefanb@linux.ibm.com>

Address the following issue detected by the kernel test robot when
there's no certificate file at the time when checking for the type
of key in the cert:

Can't open certs/signing_key.pem for reading, No such file or directory

The simplest solution is to redirect openssl's stderr output to /dev/null.

Fixes: 28d62d945ded ("certs: Trigger creation of RSA module signing key if it's not an RSA key")
