mm/pkeys: generate pkey system call code only if ARCH_HAS_PKEYS is selected
Having code for the pkey_mprotect, pkey_alloc and pkey_free system calls
makes only sense if ARCH_HAS_PKEYS is selected. If not selected these
system calls will always return -ENOSPC or -EINVAL.
To simplify things and have less code generate the pkey system call code
only if ARCH_HAS_PKEYS is selected.
For architectures which have already wired up the system calls, but do
not select ARCH_HAS_PKEYS this will result in less generated code and a
different return code: the three system calls will now always return
-ENOSYS, using the cond_syscall mechanism.
For architectures which have not wired up the system calls less
unreachable code will be generated.
