The lockdep splat below hints at a bug in RCU usage in dm-crypt that
was introduced with commit c538f6ec9f56 ("dm crypt: add ability to use
keys from the kernel key retention service"). The kernel keyring
function user_key_payload() is in fact a wrapper for
rcu_dereference_protected() which must not be called with only
rcu_read_lock() section mark.
Unfortunately the kernel keyring subsystem doesn't currently provide
an interface that allows the use of an RCU read-side section. So for
now we must drop RCU in favour of rwsem until a proper function is
made available in the kernel keyring subsystem.

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.
