Eugene Syromyatnikov 2bcf858070 request_key.2: Add information regarding default keyring
Notes from Eugene:

Based on linux v4.9-rc6 (9c763584):

 * security/keys/keyctl.c, SYSCALL_DEFINE4(request_key, ...), line 158:
  * Assume that call is performed with with destringid == 0:
  * We skip check on line 196, so dest_ref remains NULL
  * On line 213, request_key_and_link is called with key_ref_to_ptr(dest_ref)
   * key_ref_to_ptr() itself just zeroes lower bit which is used for
     indication that key reference in the possession of the current
     context.
 * security/keys/request_key.c, request_key_and_link, line 508:
  * On line 543, we try to search process keyrings for the key (we
    fill ctx at hte beginning of the function and then pass it to
    search_process_keyrings)
  * If key is found (key_ref is not erroneous), we convert key_ref to
    ptr on line 546 and skip the following block on line 547 since
    dest_keyring is 0.
  * If key is not found and error is not EAGAIN, then
    construct_key_and_link is called on line 566 with dest_keyring ==
    NULL.
 * security/keys/request_key.c, construct_key_and_link, line 430:
  * On line 450, construct_get_dest_keyring is called with dest_keyring
    == NULL.
 * security/keys/request_key.c, construct_get_dest_keyring, line 253:
  * The argument here (which is pointer to pointer to struct key) is
    named _dest_keyring, but on line 257 it is dereferenced to local
    variable dest_keyring (so it stores NULL now).
  * We re going to the "else" branch (starting from line 266) of check
    on line 262
  * Now we are switching against cred->jit_keyring with the behavour
    described in the patch.
 * git grep jit_keyring security/keys reveals that it is assigned inside
   keyctl_set_reqkey_keyring, security/keys/keyctl.c, line 1257.
 * keyctl_set_reqkey_keyring is called from SYSCALL_DEFINE5(keyctl,
   ...), when option passed to keyctl is KEYCTL_SET_REQKEY_KEYRING (line
   1652).
 * Default value for jit_keyring is sort of difficult to find out, since
   it is inherited, but overall it is explicitly set to
   KEY_REQKEY_DEFL_THREAD_KEYRING or copied from zeroed-out structures
   (so it is equal to KEY_REQKEY_DEFL_DEFAULT) which leads to the same
   behaviour in case the process has not been upcalled by request_key
   construction.
