POWER6 only supports AMR update via privileged mode (MSR[PR] = 0,
SPRN_AMR=29) The PR=1 (userspace) alias for that SPR (SPRN_AMR=13) was
only supported from POWER7. Since we don't allow userspace modifying
of AMR value we should disable pkey support on P6 and before.
The hypervisor will still report pkey support via
"ibm,processor-storage-keys". Hence also check for P7 CPU_FTR bit to
decide on pkey support.

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.
