From efba797b977c99bc6e0c301299272c80fb8b287f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mat Martineau Date: Fri, 6 May 2016 15:38:17 -0700 Subject: KEYS: Add an optional lookup_restriction hook to key_type The restrict_link functions used to validate keys as they are linked to a keyring can be associated with specific key types. Each key type may be loaded (or not) at runtime, so lookup of restrict_link functions needs to be part of the key type implementation to ensure that the requested keys can be examined.
