+    If restrict_link not NULL, it should point to a function that will be
+    called each time an attempt is made to link a key into the new keyring.
+    This function is called to check whether a key may be added into the keying
+    or not.  Callers of key_create_or_update() within the kernel can pass
+    KEY_ALLOC_BYPASS_RESTRICTION to suppress the check.  An example of using

+    can be verified by a key the kernel already has.

+    added to, the key flags value and the type and payload of the key being
+    added.  Note that when a new key is being created, this is called between
+    payload preparsing and actual key creation.  The function should return 0
