    Fix an RCU warning in the reading of user keys:
    
    ===================================================
    [ INFO: suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage. ]
    ---------------------------------------------------
    security/keys/user_defined.c:202 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection!
    
    other info that might help us debug this:
    
    rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 0
    1 lock held by keyctl/3637:
     #0:  (&key->sem){+++++.}, at: [<ffffffff811a80ae>] keyctl_read_key+0x9c/0xcf
    
    stack backtrace:
