KEYS: Provide keyctls to drive the new key type ops for asymmetric keys [ver #2]
Provide five keyctl functions that permit userspace to make use of the new
key type ops for accessing and driving asymmetric keys.

 (*) Query an asymmetric key.

	long keyctl(KEYCTL_PKEY_QUERY,
		    key_serial_t key, unsigned long reserved,
		    struct keyctl_pkey_query *info);

     Get information about an asymmetric key.  The information is returned
     in the keyctl_pkey_query struct:

	__u32	supported_ops;

     A bit mask of flags indicating which ops are supported.  This is
     constructed from a bitwise-OR of:

	KEYCTL_SUPPORTS_{ENCRYPT,DECRYPT,SIGN,VERIFY}

	__u32	key_size;

     The size in bits of the key.

	__u16	max_data_size;
	__u16	max_sig_size;
	__u16	max_enc_size;
	__u16	max_dec_size;

     The maximum sizes in bytes of a blob of data to be signed, a signature
     blob, a blob to be encrypted and a blob to be decrypted.

     reserved must be set to 0.  This is intended for future use to hand
     over one or more passphrases needed unlock a key.

     If successful, 0 is returned.  If the key is not an asymmetric key,
     EOPNOTSUPP is returned.

 (*) Encrypt, decrypt, sign or verify a blob using an asymmetric key.

	long keyctl(KEYCTL_PKEY_ENCRYPT,
		    const struct keyctl_pkey_params *params,
		    const char *info,
		    const void *in,
		    void *out);

	long keyctl(KEYCTL_PKEY_DECRYPT,
		    const struct keyctl_pkey_params *params,
		    const char *info,
		    const void *in,
		    void *out);

	long keyctl(KEYCTL_PKEY_SIGN,
		    const struct keyctl_pkey_params *params,
		    const char *info,
		    const void *in,
		    void *out);

	long keyctl(KEYCTL_PKEY_VERIFY,
		    const struct keyctl_pkey_params *params,
		    const char *info,
		    const void *in,
		    const void *in2);

     Use an asymmetric key to perform a public-key cryptographic operation
     a blob of data.

     The parameter block pointed to by params contains a number of integer
     values:

	__s32		key_id;
	__u32		in_len;
	__u32		out_len;
	__u32		in2_len;

     For a given operation, the in and out buffers are used as follows:

	Operation ID		in,in_len	out,out_len	in2,in2_len
	=======================	===============	===============	===========
	KEYCTL_PKEY_ENCRYPT	Raw data	Encrypted data	-
	KEYCTL_PKEY_DECRYPT	Encrypted data	Raw data	-
	KEYCTL_PKEY_SIGN	Raw data	Signature	-
	KEYCTL_PKEY_VERIFY	Raw data	-		Signature

     info is a string of key=value pairs that supply supplementary
     information.

     The __spare space in the parameter block must be set to 0.  This is
     intended, amongst other things, to allow the passing of passphrases
     required to unlock a key.

     If successful, encrypt, decrypt and sign all return the amount of data
     written into the output buffer.  Verification returns 0 on success.
