[PATCH] keys: Fix request_key() cache

[David Howells]

When the key cached by request_key() and co. is cleaned up on exit(), the
code looks in the wrong task_struct, and so clears the wrong cache.  This
leads to anomalies in key refcounting when doing, say, a kernel build on an
afs volume, that then trigger kasan to report a use-after-free when the key
is viewed in /proc/keys.

Fix this by making exit_creds() look in the passed-in task_struct rather
than in current (the task_struct cleanup code is deferred by RCU and
potentially run in another task).

Fixes: 7743c48e54ee ("keys: Cache result of request_key*() temporarily in task_struct")
