Move the user and user-session keyrings to the user_namespace struct rather than pinning them from the user_struct struct. This prevents these keyrings from propagating across user-namespaces boundaries with regard to the KEY_SPEC_* flags, thereby making them more useful in a containerised environment. The issue is that a single user_struct may be represent UIDs in several different namespaces. The way the patch does this is by attaching a 'register keyring' in each user_namespace and then sticking the user and user-session keyrings into that. It can then be searched to retrieve them.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
