On platforms doing non-coherent DMA (4xx, 8xx, ...), it's important
that the kmalloc minimum alignment is set to the cache line size, to
avoid sharing cache lines between different objects, so that DMA to

This problem is that find_keyring_by_name does not confirm that the keyring is
valid before accepting it.

Skipping keyrings that have been reduced to a zero count seems the way to go.
To this end, use atomic_inc_not_zero() to increment the usage count and skip
the candidate keyring if that returns false.

The following script _may_ cause the bug to happen, but there's no guarantee
as the window of opportunity is small:

#!/bin/sh
LOOP=100000
USER=dummy_user
/bin/su -c "exit;" $USER || { /usr/sbin/adduser -m $USER; add=1; }
for ((i=0; i<LOOP; i++))
do
/bin/su -c "echo '$i' > /dev/null" $USER
done
(( add == 1 )) && /usr/sbin/userdel -r $USER
exit

Note that the nominated user must not be in use.

An alternative way of testing this may be:

for ((i=0; i<100000; i++))
do
keyctl session foo /bin/true || break
done >&/dev/null

as that uses a keyring named "foo" rather than relying on the user and
user-session named keyrings.

later, as we started instantiating the hwmon devices explicitly based

* Support for recent FSC chips on older kernels. The DMI-based device
  instantiation is more difficult to backport than the device support
  itself.
* Case where the DMI-based device instantiation fails, whatever the
