Agreed. This had me confused.

$ grep -nr "#define __NR_pkey_" /usr/include/
/usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h:767:#define __NR_pkey_mprotect 288
/usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h:769:#define __NR_pkey_alloc 289
/usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h:771:#define __NR_pkey_free 290
/usr/include/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/asm/unistd_32.h:374:#define __NR_pkey_alloc  384
/usr/include/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/asm/unistd_32.h:375:#define __NR_pkey_free   385
/usr/include/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/asm/unistd_32.h:376:#define __NR_pkey_mprotect       386
/usr/include/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/asm/unistd_64.h:365:#define __NR_pkey_alloc  384
/usr/include/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/asm/unistd_64.h:366:#define __NR_pkey_free   385
/usr/include/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/asm/unistd_64.h:367:#define __NR_pkey_mprotect       386
...

But it looks like including unistd.h from a C program picks the
right values.
