Christophe Leroy 2679f9bd0a powerpc/8xx: Add Kernel Userspace Access Protection
This patch adds Kernel Userspace Access Protection on the 8xx.

When a page is RO or RW, it is set RO or RW for Key 0 and NA
for Key 1.

Up to now, the User group is defined with Key 0 for both User and
Supervisor.

By changing the group to Key 0 for User and Key 1 for Supervisor,
this patch prevents the Kernel from being able to access user data.

At exception entry, the kernel saves SPRN_MD_AP in the regs struct,
and reapply the protection. At exception exit it restores SPRN_MD_AP
with the value saved on exception entry.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
