Here's an updated patch with fixed user_key_payload_locked() and user_read().

KEYS: Differentiate uses of rcu_dereference_key() and user_key_payload()

rcu_dereference_key() and user_key_payload() are currently being used in
two different, incompatible ways:

(1) As a wrapper to rcu_dereference() - when only the RCU read lock used
to protect the key.

(2) As a wrapper to rcu_dereference_protected() - when the key semaphor is
used to protect the key and the may be being modified.

Fix this by splitting both of the key wrappers to produce:

(1) RCU accessors for keys when caller has the key semaphore locked:

dereference_key_locked()
user_key_payload_locked()

(2) RCU accessors for keys when caller holds the RCU read lock:

dereference_key_rcu()
user_key_payload_rcu()

This should fix following warning in the NFS idmapper
