Pull security layer fixes from James Morris:
 "The keys patch fixes a bug which is breaking kerberos, and the seccomp
  fix addresses a no_new_privs bypass"

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security:
  KEYS: Only apply KEY_FLAG_KEEP to a key if a parent keyring has it set
  seccomp: always propagate NO_NEW_PRIVS on tsync
