I don't think the approach taken for the mount wide keys will work for a
couple reasons. The first is that lockdep reports this after a mount:

================================================
[ BUG: lock held when returning to user space! ]
------------------------------------------------
mount/1019 is leaving the kernel with locks still held!
1 lock held by mount/1019:
#0:  (&key->sem){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffa021ff12>] ecryptfs_keyring_auth_tok_for_sig+0xe6/0x195 [ecryptfs]

The second is that while this does prevent key_update() from updating
the key underneath us, it just results in `keyctl update` on a mount key
to become a hung task until unmounting the eCryptfs mount.

It looks like we'll have to have more efficient locking for mount keys.
