This patch is in the "keys-fixes" branch now, but it doesn't remove KEYS_COMPAT
from arch/arm64/Kconfig.  David, can you fix it?  Thanks!

Done.  See below.

commit 90fe15899ffa2f7c6dd9a7c257c840cfbd523aad

    security/keys: add CONFIG_KEYS_COMPAT to Kconfig
    
    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]

Looks good now, thanks.  (Except that as I mentioned before, I don't think we
need the KEYS_COMPAT option at all, but that can be another patch.)
