FYI, for me you don't need to reply into the comments where you'll be 
following the review suggestion. It saves us both time if we focus on 
points where there's more to discuss.

Perhaps the loops could have the same form, either this or the one in the 
prev function.

Convert the error handling above to < 0 + goto pairs instead.

Should this function really return 0 when get_password_instance_id() 
returns error?

It can also write to -EIO index here when get_poassword_instance_id() 
fails:

Duplicated code with the previous function? If so, add a helper.

Use !strcmp() instead, please check the rest yourself, I won't mark them 
all.

Is kerneldoc happy with the extra line between func and its parameters,

Do
	size = min(password_data->encodings_size, MAX_ENCODINGS_SIZE); 
instead of &&. Then put the for () into single line.

Hmm... Is the variation here from MAX_ENCODINGS_SIZE (above) -> 
MAX_VALUES_SIZE intentional? They're both 16 anyway.
