That's pretty wordy, can we make it CONFIG_PPC_MEM_KEYS ?

I think you're a sufficient vim wizard to search and replace all
usages at once, if not I can do it before I apply the series.

We don't need the note, that's exactly what the next line says:

But shouldn't it be BOOK3S_64 ?

I don't think it works on BookE does it?

I prefer just "help".

You don't need ifdefs around that. But you also don't need it (see below).

_ASM_POWERPC_KEYS_H

Missing copyright header here.

That means pkey 1 is not allocated and pkey 0 is?

Surely this should just return false for now?

static inline int arch_override_mprotect_pkey(struct vm_area_struct *vma,
					      int prot, int pkey)

I'm not sure we need to initialise this that early, but if we do, it
should be done in early_init_mmu(), not here.

This should go in a later patch when it's needed.

Is any of it really copyright Intel?

Blank line.

Comment is wrong and unnecessary.

I'm going to stop commenting on every badly formatted comment :)

Those are both false anyway, so I'm not sure we really needed to
initialise them to false again, but I don't feel that strongly about it.

cheers
