The attached patch makes the add_key(), request_key and keyctl() syscalls deal
with strnlen_user() properly, allowing for the fact that it counts the NUL
character (if there is one) in the count it returns.
This causes the maximum size of the type string to go from 30 to 31 and the
maximum sizes of description and callout data strings to go from 4094 to 4095
(not including NUL terminators).
The patch also causes EINVAL to be returned if the type string length is not
in the range 0 < N < 32, or if the description and callout data lengths are
not in the range N < 4096 (not including NUL terminators).
Furthermore, the patch macroises the fetching of types, descriptions and
callout data from userspace to help keep it all consistent.
