Set cred->user_ns in key_replace_session_keyring
Since this cred was not created with copy_creds(), it needs to get initialized. Otherwise use of syscall(__NR_keyctl, KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT); can lead to a NULL deref. Thanks to Robert for finding this. But introduced by commit 47a150edc2a ("Cache user_ns in struct cred"). Signed-off-by: Serge E. Hallyn <serge.hallyn@canonical.com> Reported-by: Robert Święcki <robert@swiecki.net> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org (2.6.39) Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
