Dave Hansen 33a709b25a mm/gup, x86/mm/pkeys: Check VMAs and PTEs for protection keys
Today, for normal faults and page table walks, we check the VMA
and/or PTE to ensure that it is compatible with the action.  For
instance, if we get a write fault on a non-writeable VMA, we
SIGSEGV.

We try to do the same thing for protection keys.  Basically, we
try to make sure that if a user does this:

	mprotect(ptr, size, PROT_NONE);
	*ptr = foo;

they see the same effects with protection keys when they do this:

	mprotect(ptr, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE);
	set_pkey(ptr, size, 4);
	wrpkru(0xffffff3f); // access disable pkey 4
	*ptr = foo;

The state to do that checking is in the VMA, but we also
sometimes have to do it on the page tables only, like when doing
a get_user_pages_fast() where we have no VMA.

We add two functions and expose them to generic code:

	arch_pte_access_permitted(pte_flags, write)
	arch_vma_access_permitted(vma, write)

These are, of course, backed up in x86 arch code with checks
against the PTE or VMA's protection key.

But, there are also cases where we do not want to respect
protection keys.  When we ptrace(), for instance, we do not want
to apply the tracer's PKRU permissions to the PTEs from the
process being traced.
