In key_alloc() and key_payload_reserve(), key->quotalen and key->datalen
can receive values larger than USHRT_MAX.

Example:

  keyctl new_session >/dev/null
  owner=$(keyctl newring owner @s)
  keeper=$(keyctl newring keeper @s)

  for ((i=0; i<16384; i++)); do
      key=$(keyctl add user "k$i" x "$keeper")
      keyctl link "$key" "$owner"
  done

  awk -v uid="$(id -u):" '$1 == uid {print $NF}' /proc/key-users
  keyctl clear "$owner"
  awk -v uid="$(id -u):" '$1 == uid {print $NF}' /proc/key-users

Because key->datalen wraps around 65535, the quota refunded upon clearing
is truncated, causing quota bytes to leak in /proc/key-users.

Change the types of key->datalen and key->quotalen from unsigned short to
unsigned int so that they can carry the full payload length without
truncation.
