[akpm]

The patch titled
     Subject: selftests/vm/pkeys: fix assertion in pkey_disable_set/clear()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     selftests-vm-pkeys-fix-assertion-in-pkey_disable_set-clear.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

From: Ram Pai <linuxram@us.ibm.com>
Subject: selftests/vm/pkeys: fix assertion in pkey_disable_set/clear()

In some cases, a pkey's bits need not necessarily change in a way that the
value of the pkey register increases when performing a pkey_disable_set()
or decreases when performing a pkey_disable_clear().

For example, on powerpc, if a pkey's current state is PKEY_DISABLE_ACCESS
and we perform a pkey_write_disable() on it, the bits still remain the
same.  We will observe something similar when the pkey's current state is
0 and a pkey_access_enable() is performed on it.

Either case would cause some assertions to fail.  This fixes the problem.
