[PATCH v2 5/6] KEYS: load key flags and expiry time atomically in proc_keys_show()

[Eric Biggers]

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>

In proc_keys_show(), the key semaphore is not held, so the key ->flags
and ->expiry can be changed concurrently.  We therefore should read them
atomically just once.  Otherwise /proc/keys may show an inconsistent
state, such a key that is negative ('N') but not instantiated ('I').
