3.2.88-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Ben Hutchings <b...@decadent.org.uk>
The "dead" key type has no match operation, and a search for keys of
this type can cause a null dereference in keyring_search_aux().
keyring_search() has a check for this, but request_keyring_and_link()
does not. Move the check into keyring_search_aux(), covering both of
them.
This was fixed upstream by commit c06cfb08b88d ("KEYS: Remove
key_type::match in favour of overriding default by match_preparse"),
part of a series of large changes that are not suitable for
backporting.
