[RFC PATCH v3 00/11] KEYS: Sanitize the garbage collector

[Jarkko Sakkinen <jarkko@kernel.org>]

1. Replace key_type_dead retyping with module reference pinning so live
   keys and restrictions keep their backing key_type module loaded until
   key_gc_unused_keys() or keyring_destroy() completes.
2. Process serial-tree scans and graveyard destruction in fixed 64-key
   chunks to a bound workqueue execution latency without hurting overall
   throughput for a significant amount.

The first part has a user-space visible effect: rmmod returns -EBUSY while
keys or keyring restrictions still pin the backing module.

Internal key caches or transport state bottlenecks are addressed by either
clearing their private caches on last-client teardown or splitting key
types into dedicated provider modules.

CHANGES
=======

v3:
- Split dns_resolver and rxrpc key types into dedicated provider modules
  (dns_resolver_key.ko and rxrpc_keys.ko) instead of client refcounting,
  so cached or retained keys do not pin dns_resolver.ko or rxrpc.ko.
- Dropped the standalone nvme-keyring fix as it was picked up by the
  subsystem maintainers.
- Hardened key_gc_flush() to serialize against chunked key_gc_work
  continuations, and fixed a restriction module reference leak on failed
  keyring instantiation.

v2:
- Used v1 as a test probe for Sashiko to detect the corner cases instead
  of trying to resolve even the known ones beforehand.
- Converted the client subsystems to be compatible with the module
  pinning semantics.
