get_ds() is a legacy name for KERNEL_DS; all architectures #define it to
KERNEL_DS, and almost every user of set_fs() uses the name KERNEL_DS.

Let the integrity subsystem also use KERNEL_DS so that we can get rid of
get_ds() at some point.

Nevermind, Linus just did this across the tree in
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=736706bee3298208343a76096370e4f6a5c55915
