    caused the following build errors:
    
      crypto/asymmetric_keys/x509_public_key.c: In function ‘x509_key_preparse’:
      crypto/asymmetric_keys/x509_public_key.c:237:35: error: ‘system_trusted_keyring’ undeclared (first use in this function)
       ret = x509_validate_trust(cert, system_trusted_keyring);
                                       ^
      crypto/asymmetric_keys/x509_public_key.c:237:35: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
    
    reported by Jim Davis. Mimi says:
    
     "I made the classic mistake of requesting this patch to be upstreamed
      at the last second, rather than waiting until the next open window.
    
      At this point, the best course would probably be to revert the two
      commits and fix them for the next open window"
