Merge tag 'keys-fixes-20150107' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs
Pull keyrings fixes from David Howells: "Two fixes: - Fix for the order in which things are done during key garbage collection to prevent named keyrings causing a crash [CVE-2014-9529]. - Fix assoc_array to explicitly #include rcupdate.h to prevent compilation errors under certain circumstances" * tag 'keys-fixes-20150107' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs: assoc_array: Include rcupdate.h for call_rcu() definition KEYS: close race between key lookup and freeing
