Subject: [PATCH 3.18 19/20] security/keys: add CONFIG_KEYS_COMPAT to Kconfig

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Bilal Amarni <bilal.amarni@...il.com>

commit 47b2c3fff4932e6fc17ce13d51a43c6969714e20 upstream.

CONFIG_KEYS_COMPAT is defined in arch-specific Kconfigs and is missing for
several 64-bit architectures : mips, parisc, tile.

At the moment and for those architectures, calling in 32-bit userspace the
keyctl syscall would return an ENOSYS error.

This patch moves the CONFIG_KEYS_COMPAT option to security/keys/Kconfig, to
make sure the compatibility wrapper is registered by default for any 64-bit
architecture as long as it is configured with CONFIG_COMPAT.

[DH: Modified to remove arm64 compat enablement also as requested by Eric
 Biggers]
