Commit 8c0637e950d6 ("keys: Make the KEY_NEED_* perms an enum rather than
a mask") changed the type of the key_permission callback functions, but
didn't change the type of the hook, which trips indirect call checking with
Control-Flow Integrity (CFI). This change fixes the issue by changing the
hook type to match the functions.
