Hi x86 maintainers,

This set has been seen quite a few changes and additions since the
last post.  Details below.

Changes from v3:
 * Reordered patches following Ingo's recommendations: Introduce
   failing selftests first, then the kernel code to fix the test
   failure.
 * Increase verbosity and accuracy of do_not_expect_pk_fault()
   messages.
 * Removed abort() use from tests.  Crashing is not nice.
 * Remove some dead debugging code, fixing dprint_in_signal.
 * Fix deadlocks from using printf() and friends in signal
   handlers.

Changes from v2:
 * Clarified commit message in patch 1/9 taking some feedback from
   Shuah.

Changes from v1:
 * Added Fixes: and cc'd stable.  No code changes.

This fixes two bugs, and adds selftests to make sure they stay fixed:

1. pkey 0 was not usable via mprotect_pkey() because it had never
   been explicitly allocated.
2. mprotect(PROT_EXEC) memory could sometimes be left with the
   implicit exec-only protection key assigned.

I already posted #1 previously.  I'm including them both here because
I don't think it's been picked up in case folks want to pull these
all in a single bundle.
