Subject: [PATCH] KEYS: Fix a NULL pointer deref in the user-defined key type

commit 9f35a33b8d06263a165efe3541d9aa0cdbd70b3b upstream.

Fix a NULL pointer deref in the user-defined key type whereby updating a
negative key into a fully instantiated key will cause an oops to occur
when the code attempts to free the non-existent old payload.

This results in an oops that looks something like the following:

  BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000008
