0x1, 0x2, 0x4 here are standard bit positions for their corresponding
VM_KEY_XXX based protection values ? Although this is similar to what
x86 is doing currently, hence just trying to understand if these bit
positions here are related to the user visible ABI, which should be
standardized ?

Agree with previous comments about the need for system_supports_poe()
based additional check for the above code block.
