Jann Horn 0b9dc6c9f0 keys: safe concurrent user->{session,uid}_keyring access
The current code can perform concurrent updates and reads on
user->session_keyring and user->uid_keyring. Add a comment to
struct user_struct to document the nontrivial locking semantics, and use
READ_ONCE() for unlocked readers and smp_store_release() for writers to
prevent memory ordering issues.

Fixes: 69664cf16af4 ("keys: don't generate user and user session keyrings unless they're accessed")
