keys: Add a keyctl to move a key between keyrings
Add a keyctl to atomically move a link to a key from one keyring to another. The key must exist in "from" keyring and a flag can be given to cause the operation to fail if there's a matching key already in the "to" keyring. This can be done with: keyctl(KEYCTL_MOVE, key_serial_t key, key_serial_t from_keyring, key_serial_t to_keyring, unsigned int flags); The key being moved must grant Link permission and both keyrings must grant Write permission. flags should be 0 or KEYCTL_MOVE_EXCL, with the latter preventing displacement of a matching key from the "to" keyring.

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.
