Subject: [PATCH] keys: Remove outdated __user annotations

When the semantics of the ->read() handlers were changed such that "buffer"
is a kernel pointer, some __user annotations survived.
Since they're wrong now, get rid of them.

Fixes: d3ec10aa9581 ("KEYS: Don't write out to userspace while holding key semaphore")
