Storing ipcs into IDRs

This patch converts casts of struct kern_ipc_perm to
   . struct msg_queue
   . struct sem_array
   . struct shmid_kernel
into the equivalent container_of() macro. It improves code maintenance
because the code need not change if kern_ipc_perm is no longer at the
beginning of the containing struct.
