[PATCH v2 21/31] afs: Make afs_init_request() get a key if not given a file

In a future patch, AFS directory caching will go through netfslib and this
will involve, at times, running on behalf of ->lookup(), which doesn't
provide us with a file from which we can get an authentication key.

If a file isn't provided, make afs_init_request() get a key from the
process's keyrings instead when setting up a read.
