The __Pxxx/__Sxxx macros are only for init protection_map[]. All
usage of them in linux should come from protection_map array.

Becasue a lot of architectures would re-initilize protection_map[]
array, eg: x86-mem_encrypt, m68k-motorola, mips, arm, sparc.

Using __P000 maybe won't cause bug because hw would deny access
with PROT_NONE permission, but it's not rigorous.

Changes since V2:
 - s/init protection_map[]/protection_map[] init/
 - s/Becasue/Because/
 - Remove unclear part
 - Replace __P000 and __S000 with protection_map[0] and
   protection_map[8]
