Subject: [RFC PATCH 7/8] fs: Protect creds installed by override_creds()
The kpkeys_hardened_cred feature, when enabled, automatically
protects credentials installed by commit_creds(). However, because
override_creds() does not consume its argument, it is up to its
callers to protect the credentials before calling override_creds().
This is done by calling protect_creds(), moving the credentials to a
protected memory location.
In some cases, the credentials returned by prepare_creds() are
passed to override_creds() as-is. In such situation where write
access to the credentials is not needed, prepare_protected_creds()
is used to avoid the copy incurred by a separate call to
protect_creds().
This patch covers the main users of override_creds(), but it is not
comprehensive.
This patch is a no-op if kpkeys_hardened_cred isn't enabled.
