Hi Eric,

Currently X.509 intermediate certs with the CA flag set to false do not
have the endorsed CA (KEY_FLAG_ECA) set. Allow these intermediate certs to
be added.  Requirements for an intermediate include: Usage extension
defined as keyCertSign, Basic Constrains for CA is false, and the
intermediate cert is signed by a current endorsed CA.
Intermediary keys should have the CA flag enabled as well.   Why is
this needed?    At least for the new Kconfig, please keep it simple as
to which certificates may be added to the machine keyring.

thanks,

Mimi
