keys: allow the callout data to be passed as a blob rather than a string
Allow the callout data to be passed as a blob rather than a string for
internal kernel services that call any request_key_*() interface other than
request_key(). request_key() itself still takes a NUL-terminated string.
The functions that change are:
request_key_with_auxdata()
request_key_async()
request_key_async_with_auxdata()
