Yes, I think it's worth tying it in with the encrypted hibernation
support. The local attack is significantly harder in the hibernation
case - in the face of unknown hardware it basically involves a
pre-generated memory image corresponding to your system or the ability
to force a reboot into an untrusted environment. I think it's probably
more workable to just add a configuration option for forcing encrypted
hibernation when secure boot is in use.
