Michael Halcrow 6a3fd92e73 eCryptfs: make key module subsystem respect namespaces
Make eCryptfs key module subsystem respect namespaces.

Since I will be removing the netlink interface in a future patch, I just made
changes to the netlink.c code so that it will not break the build.  With my
recent patches, the kernel module currently defaults to the device handle
interface rather than the netlink interface.
