Subject: [PATCH 2/3] keys: fix trusted/encrypted keys sparse
 rcu_assign_pointer messages

From: Mimi Zohar <zohar@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

Define rcu_assign_keypointer(), which uses the key payload.rcudata instead
of payload.data, to resolve the CONFIG_SPARSE_RCU_POINTER message:
"incompatible types in comparison expression (different address spaces)"

Replace the rcu_assign_pointer() calls in encrypted/trusted keys with
rcu_assign_keypointer().
