dns_resolver: Allow used keys to be invalidated
Allow used DNS resolver keys to be invalidated after use if the caller is doing its own caching of the results. This reduces the amount of resources required. Fix AFS to invalidate DNS results to kill off permanent failure records that get lodged in the resolver keyring and prevent future lookups from happening. Fixes: 0a5143f2f89c ("afs: Implement VL server rotation") Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
