Subject: x86/pkeys/selftests: Give better unexpected fault error messages

From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>

[ Upstream commit 55556b0b2016806b2e16a20b62d143383983a34a ]

do_not_expect_pk_fault() is a helper that we call when we do not expect
a PK fault to have occurred.  But, it is a function, which means that
it obscures the line numbers from pkey_assert().  It also gives no
details.

Replace it with an implementation that gives nice line numbers and
also lets callers pass in a more descriptive message about what
happened that caused the unexpected fault.
