Well, another solution, without changing API, is that max_size() should
return bigger size (to fit encoded signature), but in that case keyctl
will think wrongly about key_size.

Just for reference, keyctl_pkey_params_get_2 check that needs to be
passed:

        case KEYCTL_PKEY_VERIFY:
                if (uparams.in_len  > info.max_sig_size ||
                    uparams.out_len > info.max_data_size)
                        return -EINVAL;

So we can return arbitrarily big value, in theory.
