[PATCH 11/26] x86, pkeys: add functions for set/fetch PKRU

From: Dave Hansen
Date: Wed Sep 16 2015 - 14:03:15 EST



This adds the raw instructions to access PKRU as well as some
accessor functions that correctly handle when the CPU does
not support the instruction. We don't use them here, but
we will use read_pkru() in the next patch.

I do not see an immediate use for write_pkru(). But, we put it
here for partity with its twin.
