[PATCH 20/31] x86, pkeys: differentiate instruction fetches

[Dave Hansen]

From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

As discussed earlier, we attempt to enforce protection keys in
software.

However, the code checks all faults to ensure that they are not
violating protection key permissions.  It was assumed that all
faults are either write faults where we check PKRU[key].WD (write
disable) or read faults where we check the AD (access disable)
bit.

But, there is a third category of faults for protection keys:
instruction faults.  Instruction faults never run afoul of
protection keys because they do not affect instruction fetches.

So, plumb the PF_INSTR bit down in to the
arch_vma_access_permitted() function where we do the protection
key checks.

We also add a new FAULT_FLAG_INSTRUCTION.  This is because
handle_mm_fault() is not passed the architecture-specific
error_code where we keep PF_INSTR, so we need to encode the
instruction fetch information in to the arch-generic fault
flags.
