On x86, there is a set of instructions used to save and restore register
state collectively known as the XSAVE architecture. There are about a
dozen different features managed with XSAVE. The protection keys
register, PKRU, is one of those features.
The hardware optimizes XSAVE by tracking when the state has not changed
from its initial (init) state. In this case, it can avoid the cost of
writing state to memory (it would usually just be a bunch of 0's).
When the pkey register is 0x0 the hardware optionally choose to track the
register as being in the init state (optimize away the writes). AMD CPUs
do this more aggressively compared to Intel.
On x86, PKRU is rarely in its (very permissive) init state. Instead, the
value defaults to something very restrictive. It is not surprising that
bugs have popped up in the rare cases when PKRU reaches its init state.
Add a protection key selftest which gets the protection keys register into
its init state in a way that should work on Intel and AMD. Then, do a
bunch of pkey register reads to watch for inadvertent changes.
This adds "-mxsave" to CFLAGS for all the x86 vm selftests in order to
allow use of the XSAVE instruction __builtin functions. This will make
the builtins available on all of the vm selftests, but is expected to be
harmless.

This introduces a new allocator that allocates 4K hardware pages to back
64K linux pages. This allocator is available only on powerpc.

For the pkeys subsystem to work, both the CPU and the kernel need to have
support. So, additionally check if the kernel supports pkeys apart from
the CPU feature checks.

This introduces some functions that help with setting or clearing bits of
a particular pkey. This also adds an abstraction for getting a pkey's bit
position in the pkey register as this may vary across architectures.

The size of the pkey register can vary across architectures. This
converts the data type of all its references to u64 in preparation for
multi-arch support.
To keep the definition of the u64 type consistent and remove format
specifier related warnings, __SANE_USERSPACE_TYPES__ is defined as
suggested by Michael Ellerman.
