Changes in v6:
*Optimize __read_pkru/__write_pkru in patch "save/restore PKRU when guest/host switches"
*Squash "disable PKU feature without ept" to "expose CPUID/CR4 to guest"
*Add patch "remove magic number with enum cpuid_leafs".
*Accept slightly cleaner for "add pkeys support for permission_fault"
*Accept some editing of the comments for "introduce pkru_mask to cache conditions".

Changes in v5:
*Add pkru save/restore support before FPU comes into force.
*Introduce pkru_mask instead of update_permission_bitmask.
*Update cpuid_leafs macro for __do_cpuid_ent.
*Thanks for guangrong's comments and directly modification of patches.

Changes in v4:
*Patch 2 and 4 have rebased on http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git/log/?h=mm/pkeys

Changes in v3:
*Add comments for patch that disable PKU feature without ept.

Changes in v2:
*Add pku.c for kvm-unit-tests.
*Optimize permission_fault codes for patch4.
*Delete is_long_mode and PK for patch5.
*Squash cpuid and cr4 patches.

The protection-key feature provides an additional mechanism by which IA-32e
paging controls access to usermode addresses.

Hardware support for protection keys for user pages is enumerated with CPUID
feature flag CPUID.7.0.ECX[3]:PKU. Software support is CPUID.7.0.ECX[4]:OSPKE
with the setting of CR4.PKE(bit 22).

When CR4.PKE = 1, every linear address is associated with the 4-bit protection
key located in bits 62:59 of the paging-structure entry that mapped the page
containing the linear address. The PKRU register determines, for each
protection key, whether user-mode addresses with that protection key may be
read or written.

The PKRU register (protection key rights for user pages) is a 32-bit register
with the following format: for each i (0 ≤ i ≤ 15), PKRU[2i] is the
access-disable bit for protection key i (ADi); PKRU[2i+1] is the write-disable
bit for protection key i (WDi).

Software can use the RDPKRU and WRPKRU instructions with ECX = 0 to read and
write PKRU. In addition, the PKRU register is XSAVE-managed state and can thus
be read and written by instructions in the XSAVE feature set.

PFEC.PK (bit 5) is defined as protection key violations.

The specification of Protection Keys can be found at SDM (4.6.2, volume 3)
