Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/6] KEYS: Deal with dead-type keys appropriately

Quoting David Howells (dhowells@...hat.com):
> Allow keys for which the key type has been removed to be unlinked.  Currently
> dead-type keys can only be disposed of by completely clearing the keyrings
> that point to them.

This also makes for a nice readability improvement.  Would be even nicer
to add a

#define KEY_LOOKUP_FLAGS_NONE 0

and pass that in instead of 0 at the callers doing so.

Acked-by: Serge Hallyn <serue@...ibm.com>

thanks,
