arm64: kexec_file: use more system keyrings to verify kernel image signature

Currently, when loading a kernel image via the kexec_file_load() system
call, arm64 can only use the .builtin_trusted_keys keyring to verify
a signature whereas x86 can use three more keyrings i.e.
.secondary_trusted_keys, .machine and .platform keyrings. For example,
one resulting problem is kexec'ing a kernel image  would be rejected
with the error "Lockdown: kexec: kexec of unsigned images is restricted;
see man kernel_lockdown.7".

This patch set enables arm64 to make use of the same keyrings as x86 to
verify the signature kexec'ed kernel image.
