[PATCH] docs: proc: document ProtectionKey in smaps

[Kevin Brodsky]

The ProtectionKey entry was added in v4.9; back then it was
x86-specific, but it now lives in generic code and applies to all
architectures supporting pkeys (currently x86, power, arm64).

Time to document it: add a paragraph to proc.rst about the
ProtectionKey entry.
