That needs to be in patch 2 where you create a keyring.

You should be using sizeof() not strlen() and do you need + 1 for the NUL
char?

NVDIMM_PREFIX is a constant string.  I would recommend either declaring it as
a const char[] or just sticking it in the format string in place of the %s:

	sprintf(desc, NVDIMM_PREFIX "%s", nvdimm->dimm_id);

Ummm...  You're altering the key permission?  That's not really yours to
change.

In the cover you said:

	- Modified "update" to take two key ids and and use lookup_user_key()
	  in order to improve security.  (David)

is this a holdover?
