The architectural neutral code allows the implementation to define the
macros to its taste. powerpc headers due to legacy reason includes the
include/uapi/asm-generic/mman-common.h header. That header includes the
generic definitions of only PKEY_DISABLE_ACCESS and PKEY_DISABLE_WRITE.
Unfortunately we end up importing them. I dont want to depend on them.
Any changes there could effect us. Example if the generic uapi header
changed PKEY_DISABLE_ACCESS to 0x4, we will have a conflict with
PKEY_DISABLE_EXECUTE.  Hence I undef them and define the it my way.

I suppose we can do it this way aswell. but dont like the way it is
spreading the defines accross multiple files.

yes. the comment is misleading. I just took it out.
