It wold work for me. I did ad-hoc because first example that I looked
at was EcryptFS.

I need to add sm3_256 to that array.

I've found three different ways to write it:

* sm3256 (various google hits)
* sm3-256 (various google hits)
* sm3_256 (TPM 2.0 Structures specification)

Maybe the second option would be the most appropriate?

I see. My commit message is clearly inadequate. It's an option for the
keyring syscalls.
