[PATCH] security/integrity: fix pointer to ESL data and its size on pseries

Wed Jun 7 03:26:52 AEST 2023


On PowerVM guest, variable data is prefixed with 8 bytes of timestamp.
Extract ESL by stripping off the timestamp before passing to ESL parser.

Fixes: 4b3e71e9a34c ("integrity/powerpc: Support loading keys from PLPKS")
