[PATCH -mm 1/2] umh && creds: convert call_usermodehelper_keys()to use subprocess_info->init()

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Thu Feb 25 2010 - 13:16:28 EST


call_usermodehelper_keys() uses call_usermodehelper_setkeys() to change
subprocess_info->cred in advance. Now that we have info->init() we can
change this code to set tgcred->session_keyring in context of execing
kernel thread.

Note: since currently call_usermodehelper_keys() is never called with
UMH_NO_WAIT, umh_keys_cleanup() is not really needed, we could just move
key_get() from call_usermodehelper_keys() to umh_keys_init().

Compile tested.
