Fix it by limiting option strings (combined name + value) to a much more
reasonable 128 bytes.  The exact limit is arbitrary, but currently the
only recognized option is formatted as "dnserror=%lu" which fits well
within this limit.
There will be more options coming ("ipv4", "ipv6") but they shouldn't overrun
this limit and we can always extend the limit if need be.

David (Howells) do you want to take this patch through the keyrings tree or
should I ask David Miller to take it through net-next?
