[PATCH 2/2] selftests: vm: pkeys: Fix powerpc access right updates

[Sandipan Das]

The Power ISA mandates that all writes to the Authority
Mask Register (AMR) must always be preceded as well as
succeeded by a context-synchronizing instruction. This
applies to both the privileged and unprivileged variants
of the Move To AMR instruction.
