Enable the compat keyctl wrapper on s390x so that 32-bit s390 userspace can
call the keyctl() syscall.

There's an s390x assembly wrapper that truncates all the register values to
32-bits and this then calls compat_sys_keyctl() - but the latter only exists if
CONFIG_KEYS_COMPAT is enabled, and the s390 Kconfig doesn't enable it.

Without this patch, 32-bit calls to the keyctl() syscall are given an ENOSYS
error:

	[root@devel4 ~]# keyctl show
	Session Keyring
	-3: key inaccessible (Function not implemented)
