Pull security subsystem fixes from James Morris:

"A collection of fixes for Linux keyrings, mostly thanks to Eric
Biggers:
- Fix some PKCS#7 verification issues.
- Fix handling of unsupported crypto in X.509.
- Fix too-large allocation in big_key"
- Seccomp updates via Kees Cook:
"These are fixes for the get_metadata interface that landed during

it's in the same spirit of avoiding bugs"

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
