crash_dump: fix dm_crypt keys locking and ref leak
crash_load_dm_crypt_keys() reads dm-crypt volume keys from the user keyring. It uses user_key_payload_locked() without holding key->sem, which makes lockdep complain when kexec_file_load() assembles the crash image: ============================= WARNING: suspicious RCU usage ----------------------------- ./include/keys/user-type.h:53 suspicious rcu_dereference_protected() usage! other info that might help us debug this: rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1 no locks held by kexec/4875. stack backtrace: Call Trace: <TASK> dump_stack_lvl+0x5d/0x80 lockdep_rcu_suspicious.cold+0x4e/0x96 crash_load_dm_crypt_keys+0x314/0x390 bzImage64_load+0x116/0x9a0 ? __lock_acquire+0x464/0x1ba0 __do_sys_kexec_file_load+0x26a/0x4f0 do_syscall_64+0xbd/0x430 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f In addition, the key returned by request_key() is never key_put()'d, leaking a key reference on each load attempt. Take key->sem while copying the payload and drop the key reference afterwards.
