>From David Howells, please pull for 3.18.
The first one fixes the handling of maximum buffer size for key
descriptions, fixing the size at 4095 + NUL char rather than whatever
PAGE_SIZE happens to be and permits you to read back the full description
without it getting clipped because some extra information got prepended.
The second and third fix a bug in NFS idmapper handling whereby a key
representing a mapping between an id and a name expires and causing
EKEYEXPIRED to be seen internally in NFS (which prevents the mapping from
happening) rather than re-looking up the mapping.
The following changes since commit 3a18ca061311f2f1ee9c44012f89c7436d392117:
Merge tag 'ext4_for_linus_urgent' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4 (2014-12-01 20:11:49 -0800)
are available in the git repository at:

David Howells (3):
KEYS: Fix the size of the key description passed to/from userspace
KEYS: Simplify KEYRING_SEARCH_{NO,DO}_STATE_CHECK flags
KEYS: request_key() should reget expired keys rather than give EKEYEXPIRED
