I am done with this round of reviewing. The overall approach looks good
to me, while there are places to improve or fix. I have added comment on
all things I am concerned about, please check. Thanks for the effort.

By the way, do you get confirmation on the solution from encryption/keys
developer of redhat internally or upstream? With my understanding, it
looks good. It may need their confirmation or approval in some ways.
