Pull key handling fixes from James Morris:
"This includes a fix for the capabilities code from Colin King, and a
set of further fixes for the keys subsystem. From David:
- Fix a bunch of places where kernel drivers may access revoked
user-type keys and don't do it correctly.
- Fix some ecryptfs bits.
- Fix big_key to require CONFIG_CRYPTO.
- Fix a couple of bugs in the asymmetric key type.
- Fix a race between updating and finding negative keys.
- Prevent add_key() from updating uninstantiated keys.
- Make loading of key flags and expiry time atomic when not holding
locks"

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
