[RFC PATCH v2 11/15] mm: Map page tables with privileged pkey
From: Kevin Brodsky
Date: Wed Jan 08 2025 - 05:36:47 EST
If CONFIG_KPKEYS_HARDENED_PGTABLES is enabled, map allocated page
table pages using a privileged pkey (KPKEYS_PKEY_PGTABLES), so that
page tables can only be written under guard(kpkeys_hardened_pgtables).
This patch is a no-op if CONFIG_KPKEYS_HARDENED_PGTABLES is disabled
(default).
