This actually works on x86 too.

I actually wanted a kernel-independent check, based entirely on CPUID.
That's specifically why I said "no CPU support".

If you want to do this, please do:

/* powerpc has no enumeration, just assume it has support: */
static inline bool cpu_has_cpu(void) { return true; };

	if (cpu_has_pku()) {
		dprintf1("SKIP: %s: no CPU support\n", __func__);
		return
	}

	if (kernel_pkey_supported()) {
		dprintf1("SKIP: %s: no kernel support\n", __func__);
		return;
  	}
