Unfortunately, the cred code seems to be a bit of an orphan with no
clear mailing list or maintainer listed in the MAINTAINERS file.  I've
merged cred related patches in the past that have been rotting on the
mailing lists, and Linus has accepted them; I can do the same here.

I'll probably also toss out a RFC patch to volunteer for the cred
maintainer job, if nothing else having an explicit cred mainainter
entry should help clarify things for people who want to submit code
and don't know where.
