From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>

I'm a bit ambivalent about whether this is needed or not.

Protection Keys never affect kernel mappings.  But, they can
affect whether the kernel will fault when it touches a user
mapping.  But, the kernel doesn't touch user mappings without
some careful choreography and these accesses don't generally
result in oopses.
