[PATCH 3/9] x86, pkeys, selftests: add a test for pkey 0

From: Dave Hansen
Date: Fri Mar 23 2018 - 14:12:40 EST



From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Protection key 0 is the default key for all memory and will
not normally come back from pkey_alloc(). But, you might
still want pass it to mprotect_pkey().

This check ensures that you can use pkey 0.
