David Howells fbf8c53f1a KEYS: Fix UID check in keyctl_get_persistent()
If the UID is specified by userspace when calling the KEYCTL_GET_PERSISTENT
function and the process does not have the CAP_SETUID capability, then the
function will return -EPERM if the current process's uid, suid, euid and fsuid
all match the requested UID.  This is incorrect.

Fix it such that when a non-privileged caller requests a persistent keyring by
a specific UID they can only request their own (ie. the specified UID matches
either then process's UID or the process's EUID).

This can be tested by logging in as the user and doing:

	keyctl get_persistent @p
	keyctl get_persistent @p `id -u`
	keyctl get_persistent @p 0

The first two should successfully print the same key ID.  The third should do
the same if called by UID 0 or indicate Operation Not Permitted otherwise.
