If I understand correctly, the logic below this part is:
- `gnutls_pkcs11_get_raw_issuer` call on intermediate (i.e., `certificate_list[cert_list - 1]`) will retrieve a raw DER representation of CA
- the raw DER is imported into `issuer` with `gnutls_x509_crt_import`
- distrust-after check is performed between intermediate and `issuer` (= CA)

Would it be insufficient?
