I have some patches to restrict what a key is permitted to do - see the top
few patches here:

	http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs.git/log/?h=fwsign-pkcs7

This involves marking the X.509 certs with the intended use case (or relying
on the existing CA stuff for key-signing keys).

I do put all the keys into one keyring on the basis that each key will be used
once and won't be added multiple times through separate X.509 certs that give
different usage restrictions for the same key.  Given this, having just one
keyring works fine.
