    Pull misc keyring updates from David Howells:
     "These are some miscellaneous keyrings fixes and improvements:
    
       - Fix a bunch of warnings from sparse, including missing RCU bits and
         kdoc-function argument mismatches
    
       - Implement a keyctl to allow a key to be moved from one keyring to
         another, with the option of prohibiting key replacement in the
         destination keyring.
    
       - Grant Link permission to possessors of request_key_auth tokens so
         that upcall servicing daemons can more easily arrange things such
         that only the necessary auth key is passed to the actual service
         program, and not all the auth keys a daemon might possesss.
    
       - Improvement in lookup_user_key().
    
       - Implement a keyctl to allow keyrings subsystem capabilities to be
         queried.
    
      The keyutils next branch has commits to make available, document and
      test the move-key and capabilities code:

      They're currently on the 'next' branch"
