[PATCH v18 00/24] selftests, powerpc, x86: Memory Protection Keys

Memory protection keys enables an application to protect its address
space from inadvertent access by its own code.

This feature is now enabled on powerpc and has been available since
4.16-rc1. The patches move the selftests to arch neutral directory
and enhance their test coverage.

Tested on powerpc64 and x86_64 (Skylake-SP).

Changelog
---------
Link to previous version (v17):
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linuxppc-dev/list/?series=154174

v18:
(1) Fixed issues with x86 multilib builds based on
feedback from Dave.
(2) Moved patch 2 to the end of the series.

v17:
(1) Fixed issues with i386 builds when running on x86_64
based on feedback from Dave.
(2) Replaced patch 6 from previous version with patch 7.
This addresses u64 format specifier related concerns
that Michael had raised in v15.

v16:
(1) Rebased on top of latest master.
(2) Switched to u64 instead of using an arch-dependent
pkey_reg_t type for references to the pkey register
based on suggestions from Dave, Michal and Michael.
(3) Removed build time determination of page size based
on suggestion from Michael.
(4) Fixed comment before the definition of __page_o_noops()
from patch 13 ("selftests/vm/pkeys: Introduce powerpc
support").

v15:
(1) Rebased on top of latest master.
(2) Addressed review comments from Dave Hansen.
(3) Moved code for getting or setting pkey bits to new
helpers. These changes replace patch 7 of v14.
(4) Added a fix which ensures that the correct count of
reserved keys is used across different platforms.
(5) Added a fix which ensures that the correct page size
is used as powerpc supports both 4K and 64K pages.

v14:
(1) Incorporated another round of comments from Dave Hansen.

v13:
(1) Incorporated comments for Dave Hansen.
(2) Added one more test for correct pkey-0 behavior.

v12:
(1) Fixed the offset of pkey field in the siginfo structure for
x86_64 and powerpc. And tries to use the actual field
if the headers have it defined.

v11:
(1) Fixed a deadlock in the ptrace testcase.

v10 and prior:
(1) Moved the testcase to arch neutral directory.
(2) Split the changes into incremental patches.
