format is the decrypted-data-length. However, I get the feeling I'm
proposing a solution to a problem that does not exist yet. Let's just
go with the "nvdimm" format for now.
Ah, that makes more sense now. Defining "Opt_nvdimm" or the generic
"Opt_enc32" is fine. Missing from this patch is the update to
Documentation/security/keys/trusted-encrypted.rst. Otherwise this
patch looks fine.
