SYNOPSIS
       #include <keyutils.h>
       long keyctl_invalidate(key_serial_t key);
DESCRIPTION

       diate removal from all the keyrings that point to it,  after  which  it
       will  be  deleted.   The  key will be ignored by all searches once this
       function is called even if it is not yet fully dealt with.
       The caller must have search permission on a key to be able  to  invali-
       date it.

       be returned and errno will have been set to an appropriate error.
