pkey: Move keytype check from pkey api to handler
The PKEY_VERIFYPROTK ioctl takes data from user-space and verifies the contained protected key. While checking the integrity of the ioctl request structure is the responsibility of the generic pkey_api code, the verification of the contained protected key is the responsibility of the pkey handler. The keytype verification (based on the calculated bitsize of the key) is part of the protected key verification and therefore the responsibility of the pkey handler (which already verifies it). Therefore the keytype verification is removed from the generic pkey_api code. As the calculation of the key bitsize is currently wrong, the removal of the keytype check in pkey_api also removes this wrong calculation. For this reason, the commit is flagged with the Fixes: tag.
