Applications need the ability to associate an address-range with some
key and latter revert to its initial default key. Pkey-0 comes close to
providing this function but falls short, because the current
implementation disallows applications to explicitly associate pkey-0 to
the address range.
Lets make pkey-0 less special and treat it almost like any other key.
Thus it can be explicitly associated with any address range, and can be
freed. This gives the application more flexibility and power. The
ability to free pkey-0 must be used responsibily, since pkey-0 is
associated with almost all address-range by default.
Even with this change pkey-0 continues to be slightly more special
from the following point of view.
(a) it is implicitly allocated.
(b) it is the default key assigned to any address-range.
(c) its permissions cannot be modified by userspace.
NOTE: (c) is specific to powerpc only. pkey-0 is associated by default
with all pages including kernel pages, and pkeys are also active in
kernel mode. If any permission is denied on pkey-0, the kernel running
in the context of the application will be unable to operate.
Tested on powerpc.

Key allocation and deallocation has the side effect of programming the
UAMOR/AMR/IAMR registers. This is wrong, since its the responsibility of
the application and not that of the kernel, to modify the permission on
the key.
Do not modify the pkey registers at key allocation/deallocation.
This patch also fixes a bug where a sys_pkey_free() resets the UAMOR
bits of the key, thus making its permissions unmodifiable from user
space. Later if the same key gets reallocated from a different thread
this thread will no longer be able to change the permissions on the key.

Now that we've updated the generic headers to support 5 PKEY bits for
powerpc we don't need our own #defines in arch code.

VM_PKEY_BITx are defined only if CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS
is enabled. Powerpc also needs these bits. Hence lets define the
VM_PKEY_BITx bits for any architecture that enables
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PKEYS.

PAPR defines 'ibm,processor-storage-keys' property. It exports two
values. The first value holds the number of data-access keys and the
second holds the number of instruction-access keys. Due to a bug in
the firmware, instruction-access keys is always reported as zero.
However any key can be configured to disable data-access and/or
disable execution-access. The inavailablity of the second value is not
a big handicap, though it could have been used to determine if the
platform supported disable-execution-access.
Non-PAPR platforms do not define this property in the device tree yet.
Fortunately power8 is the only released Non-PAPR platform that is
supported. Here, we hardcode the number of supported pkey to 32, by
consulting the PowerISA3.0
This patch calculates the number of keys supported by the platform.
Also it determines the platform support for read/write/execution
access support for pkeys.

Map the key protection bits of the vma to the pkey bits in
the PTE.
The PTE bits used for pkey are 3,4,5,6 and 57. The first
four bits are the same four bits that were freed up initially
in this patch series. remember? :-) Without those four bits
this patch wouldn't be possible.
BUT, on 4k kernel, bit 3, and 4 could not be freed up. remember?
Hence we have to be satisfied with 5, 6 and 7.

This patch provides the detailed implementation for
a user to allocate a key and enable it in the hardware.
It provides the plumbing, but it cannot be used till
the system call is implemented. The next patch will
do so.

Cleanup the bits corresponding to a key in the AMR, and IAMR
register, when the key is newly allocated/activated or is freed.
We dont want some residual bits cause the hardware enforce
unintended behavior when the key is activated or freed.

Total 32 keys are available on power7 and above. However
pkey 0,1 are reserved. So effectively we have 30 pkeys.
On 4K kernels, we do not have 5 bits in the PTE to
represent all the keys; we only have 3bits. Two of those
keys are reserved; pkey 0 and pkey 1. So effectively we
have 6 pkeys.
This patch keeps track of reserved keys, allocated keys
and keys that are currently free.
Also it adds skeletal functions and macros, that the
architecture-independent code expects to be available.
