RE: [RFC][PATCH] KEYS: Sort out big_key initialisation

The attached patch *might* fix the problem that's being seen.  It certainly
fixes the init problem.

I tested that the patch suggested in the original RFC works and really fixes
the issue.

The issue reproduses always with the reporter's configuration.
After applying the patch suggested in the original RFC, big_key returns error
code instead of crashing.
Tested with:
  method suggested in the original report;
  method suggested in the original RFC;
  some other tests.

Additionally below is a fix for dependency.
After applying this patch big_key is created and read successfully.
