In the next couple of commits, under new CONFIG_RSA_VERIFY_WITH_PKEY,
rsa_verify() will be extended to be able to perform RSA decryption without
additional RSA key properties from FIT image, i.e. rr and n0inv.

+	  The standard RSA-signature verification code (FIT_SIGNATURE) uses
+	  pre-calculated key properties, that are stored in fdt blob, in
+	  decrypting a signature.
+	  This does not suit the use case where there is no way defined to

+	  This options enables RSA signature verification with a public key
+	  directly specified in image_sign_info, where all the necessary
+	  key properties will be calculated on the fly in verification code.
