[PATCH V8 39/44] memremap_pages: Add memremap.pks_fault_mode

From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@intel.com>

Some systems may be using pmem in unanticipated ways. As such, it is
possible an foreseen code path to violate the restrictions of the PMEM
PKS protections.

In order to provide a more seamless integration of the PMEM PKS feature
provide a pks_fault_mode that allows for a relaxed mode should a
previously working feature fault on the PKS protected PMEM.

2 modes are available:

'relaxed' (default) -- WARN_ONCE, removed the protections, and
continuing to operate.

'strict' -- BUG_ON/or fault indicating the error. This is the
most protective of the PMEM memory but may be undesirable in
some configurations.

NOTE: The typedef of pks_fault_modes is required to allow
param_check_pks_fault() to work automatically for us. So the typedef
checkpatch warning is ignored.

NOTE: There was some debate about if a 3rd mode called 'silent' should
be available. 'silent' would be the same as 'relaxed' but not print any
output. While 'silent' is nice for admins to reduce console/log output
it would result in less motivation to fix invalid access to the
protected pmem pages. Therefore, 'silent' is left out.

---
Changes for V8
Use pks_update_exception() instead of abandoning the pkey.
Split out pgmap_protection_flag_invalid() into a separate patch
for clarity.
From Rick Edgecombe
Fix sysfs_streq() checks
From Randy Dunlap
Fix Documentation closing parans

Changes for V7
Leverage Rick Edgecombe's fault callback infrastructure to relax invalid
uses and prevent crashes
From Dan Williams
Use sysfs_* calls for parameter
Make pgmap_disable_protection inline
Remove pfn from warn output
Remove silent parameter option
