Subject[GIT PULL] Keyrings fixes, including one CVE fix
Date
Hi Linus,

Could you these directly please? James asked me to pass them directly on to
you. There are two fixes:

(1) Fix for the order in which things are done during key garbage
collection to prevent named keyrings causing a crash [CVE-2014-9529].

(2) Fix assoc_array to explicitly #include rcupdate.h to prevent compilation
errors under certain circumstances.

David
