Export the keyring key type definition and document its availability.
Add alternative types into the key's type_data union to make it more useful.
Not all users necessarily want to use it as a list_head (AF_RXRPC doesn't, for
example), so make it clear that it can be used in other ways.
The first of these patches together provide secure client-side RxRPC
connectivity as a Linux kernel socket family. Only the RxRPC transport/session
side is supplied - the presentation side (marshalling the data) is left to the
client. Copies of the patches can be found here:
del_timer_sync() buys nothing for cancel_delayed_work(), but it is less
efficient since it locks the timer unconditionally, and may wait for the
completion of the delayed_work_timer_fn().
cancel_delayed_work() == 0 means:
