KEYS: restrict /proc/keys by credentials at open time
When checking for permission to view keys whilst reading from /proc/keys, we should use the credentials with which the /proc/keys file was opened. This is because, in a classic type of exploit, it can be possible to bypass checks for the *current* credentials by passing the file descriptor to a suid program. Following commit 34dbbcdb ("Make file credentials available to the seqfile interfaces") we can finally fix it. So let's do it.
