P7 supports protection keys for data access (AMR) but not for
instruction access (IAMR), right? There's nothing in the code making
this distinction, so either CPU_FTR_PKEY shouldn't be enabled in P7 or
separate feature bits for AMR and IAMR should be used and checked before
trying to access the IAMR.

Right now this works because the firmware reports 0 execute keys in the
device tree, but if (when?) it is fixed to report 32 execute keys as
well as 32 data keys (which are the same keys), any place using
pkeys_total expecting it to mean the number of keys that are available
will be broken. This includes pkey_initialize and mm_pkey_is_allocated.

Perhaps pkeys_total should use total_data as the number of keys
supported in the system, and total_execute just as a flag to say whether
there's a IAMR? Or, since P8 and later have IAMR and P7 is unlikely to
have the firmware fixed, maybe the kernel should just ignore
total_execute altogether?

This patch should remove the comment "disable the pkey system till
everything is in place. A patch further down the line will enable it.".
